Description

A Zendesk user reported that sometimes the "next/previous" controls for a DC embed overlap with the "full screen" control.

I'm not sure if this is something we can control, but we should explore, or contact @knowtheory and co to see what they say

Research direction

Start by reproducing a Cloud embed with the next/previous and full-screen controls, using the reported overlap as the acceptance case. Inspect the embed-related frontend entry points and determine whether TimelineJS can control the layout or whether the behavior must be reported to the external provider; done means the controls no longer overlap, or the provider's limitation is documented.
