Description

The tabs may overlap with the header:

Also, the window is not scrollable, so if the inner panel were to overflow, the entire window would have to be resized for the hidden elements to be visible:

Environment:

  • Screen size: 1366×768
  • UI font: Inter
  • UI font size: 16

Research direction

Reproduce the server window with a 1366×768 screen, Inter font, and UI font size 16 to observe the tab overlap and missing scrolling. Locate the server window UI entry point, then verify that larger text keeps tabs separated and allows overflowing content to be reached without resizing the whole window.
