Scrolling issue in the New Toot column - may be instance-specific?

[Cassolotl]

Basically, this issue!

Me:

If I'm writing a post that's kinda longish, when I'm done and I go to choose a privacy setting, the menu gets lost under the bottom of the page and there's no scrollbar and I can't scroll.

Someone else:

It may be that the instance you are on has customized the CSS which isn't allowing for scrolling. The CSS for .drawer__inner class should have the following CSS, which should allow it to scroll:

overflow: hidden; overflow-y: auto;

If that overflow-y value was overridden, then it's possible that could explain why you are not able to scroll.

What d'you reckon?

yeah this is our fault. It has to do with the styles that were added to make that column transparent. We probably need to add another wrapper or add some styles to the outer column to get this working.
