Description
Steps to reproduce
This is an accessibility issue.
When using the app on a smaller, vertical screen and activating “New event” a fly-out menu opens from the right. This should open on top of interface, but it opens under the menu field, and the user won’t be able to reach it.
This does not technically fail this WCAG-criterion, though it would be a serious issue for someone trying to use the app on a mobile phone.
Expected behavior
Popover comes in front (on the top) of the view.
Actual behaviour
At the moment it looks like this

Research direction
Start by reproducing the New event fly-out on a narrow, vertical mobile viewport and inspect the popover or menu entry point responsible for its layering. Done means the fly-out appears in front of the interface and remains reachable when activated on a small screen.
