Hello,

I notice an overflow issue on post controls.

On the example below the post controls contains:

- Replies
- Solution
- Likes
- Share, Edit
- … hidden options: flag, bookmark, delete, wiki
- The reply button is now out of screen

If I tap the … button and the post controls expanded it activate the overflow-x scroll which is fix the buttons to the screen and I can scroll it left to right.

Is there a reason why the solution icon is not shown collapsed ✅, if there is not enough space for all buttons?  
I think it’s a little strange to have a scollbar without tapping ….
