Research direction

Start by reproducing the dropdown issue from the Blob Container and File Share views, using the view selections listed in the report. Trace those view-selection controls to their UI entry points and verify the selected text and arrow have adequate separation. Done means the specified blob and file share selections no longer overlap on the reported platforms.
