Hello,

With **Insert date /time \> Advanced mode \> Timezones to display** :

1. Select one timezone, e.g. Paris
2. Try to select a second timezone, by typing in “Dublin”

Expected: I can select a second timezone

Actual behaviour: I can’t select a seond timezone, the drop-down is out of view under the window.

Thank you.

Thank you. Latest Chrome on MacOS.

Here’s a screen recording.

i’ve tried on chrome and safari and i can scroll that screen up to get that dropdown that looks hidden in your view. it looks like it’s scrolling the background page in your screen-recording when you get to that particular drop down… 🤔

why is your timezone selector below the date format? mine is above on both Meta and my site. something looks different with that modal.

I think it is related to select kit positioning, we are opening the select kit underneath instead of on top of the box which leaves us very little room to work with it.

We need to migrate this to popper based positioning and render the “dropdown” above in this case.

Going to put #pr-welcome on this in case someone has a chance to go down the rabbit hole.
