screenshot

Screenshot is attached that shows the problem I just ran into.  I invoked content assist with the caret on editor line 4.

The content assist window typically opens with its top-left corner at the caret location and opens down-and-right.  In the screenshot the viewport is not quite tall enough to do this without chopping off the window's bottom, so it seems to fall back to making the caret location its bottom-left corner instead, which also does not fit and gets chopped off at the top.

The point: The proposals list is not actually long at all, and it would fully fit within the viewport if the y it opened at was clamped at the viewport's top.

This problem no longer occurs in Orion 9.0.
