Bug: ScriptEditor help deprecated by gui

Can you please fix the draw order of the help so it is readable?

Looks like your editor window is not tall enough for help pop-up content to fit inside the editor control. I can only replicate this if I make the editor narrow

Good news, I just double checked this now and you are right.
Once the window is taller it works fine. Can you still fix this, or is this a bug we have to live with?

It is a side effect of using Monaco code editor that is part of the vscode ecosystem. It uses the browser rendering engine to draw the contents so nothing can go beyond the rectangle that shows the script contents. When Rhino switched to Eto for its UI platform, the previous code editor controls could not be used especially on macOS so we decided to use this cross-platform control.

I have tested the alternative of overriding the pop-up and opening my own border-less form on top of the Script Editor window to avoid cropping. However you’d feel the cost of opening that dialog under your fingers when writing code which was not a good experience either.

I will keep thinking about this.

That all makes sense, thanks for sharing. And don’t think too much. I am sure your thoughts are better spent on other areas!
