Is this Documentation edit bug only in Chrome?

[Keith Furnell]

In Chrome at least, the dialog displayed when editing the properties of an entry on the Documentation page, appears at the mouse position. This means that for documents toward the end of the page, most of the dialog gets obscured:

(one work-around is to sort the documents so that the required entry is nearer the top, though as discussed here the sorting is ... idiosyncratic).

Do people see the same behaviour with other browsers?

@Keith Furnell it looks like resizing the window while the popup is open will also place it so that you can interact with it, but I can also tell you that a fix for this placement is already on the way, so give it ~1 day or so to have it live! Thanks for reporting this, as usual!

Great 👍

@Keith Furnell @Tomislav Tobijas you should now be able to access this popover inside of your available screen area (for all browsers) when you click "Edit" on your Compass documentation.

Looking good @Enrique Serrano Valle 

Thanks!

Hi @Keith Furnell ,

I mean, yes (I'm using Brave), but regarding this:

...most of the dialog gets obscured...

which part gets obscured exactly? (nvm, got it while I was writing the answer)

For example, if Edit/Remove buttons would 'go below' the window bottom border, the frontend just displayed them above "three dots" button (as displayed below)

👉 Basically, yes—this appears to be a bug. I'd recommend reaching out to Atlassian Support and discussing it with them. If the team opens a new bug, feel free to share it here.

What you can do meanwhile is to zoom in/out (I used keyboard CTRL + "+/-" combination), and the pop-up should move to the upper part of the screen and you can enter/change other info about the doc.

Cheers,
Tobi
