Contact info-box out of screen-view

[GoogleCodeExporter]

>>> What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open a public wave that has more than 300 participants
2. Click more to display all the participants
3. Scroll down to see participants that were out of screen-view
4. Click on a participant avatar to display his info-box

>>> What is the expected output?  What do you see instead?
I'd like to remove myself from some huuuuge imported public waves but when they 
have too many participants I can't see my info-box. If I quickly scroll back up 
I can see it fading away. Basically the problem is that this info-box can't be 
displayed below a certain point. If your avatar pic is below that point, you 
can't remove yourself from the wave.

>>> What browser and browser version are you using?  On what operating system?
Chrome 19.0.1077.3 canary on Windows XP.

>>> What URL does your browser show when the problem occurs?  Did you compile 
walkaround on your machine, or are you using a public instance?
https://wavereactor.appspot.com/wave?id=22eVy5jg77Gn39L_ 

>>> Please provide any additional information below.
I hope I'll manage to make it clear, this issue is quite hard to describe 
simply with my English level...
On the wave linked above, when I click "more" to display all the participants 
avatars, my screen size allows me to display the 21 first lines of contacts. 
Clicking on any of this avatar pic correctly displays the little pop-up 
info-box with the "Remove" button. But if I scroll down it appears that the 
info-boxes can't be displayed lower than this 21st line limit. So if I have to 
scroll down enough to have this 21st line out of screen-view I can't see the 
info-box of a contact anymore, and thus can't remove a contact (or myself) if 
it's too far down the list.

I see what you mean.

One workaround for this is probably to right-click an avatar, click "Inspect 
Element", select "initialHtml" five levels up, uncheck the checkbox to the 
right of "position: absolute" under "Matched CSS Rules".  That should let the 
wave take the full width of your window, making room for more avatars.  (You 
might have to enable developer tools somewhere in Chrome's settings.)  If 
that's not enough, you could additionally change the zoom setting in Chrome to 
make the avatars smaller.

Not a great solution, I know.

The trick to zoom out was simple and worked. Thanks.
