Description

Popup windows inside the inspector can cause problems and
in my eyes the overview can easily get lost when opening one.

"Expandable sections", which are commonly used in other software,
could be a good solution and bring more clarity to the UI.

As soon as more space is needed,
a scrollbar can appear like in this example:
