Problem

When you want to add a link to an Issue, a pop-up screen appears. However, the bottom of the pop-up, including the Link Button might be out of the screen.

Environment

  • Web Browser - Mozilla Firefox

  • Web Browser - Google Chrome

Cause

In smaller screens like 15.6 inch Full HD Resolution, the text appears very small when the windows screen text size is set to 100%.

Workaround

  • Open Firefox

  • Enter the following in the URL: about:config

  • If the warning message appears, click on the button I'll be careful, I promise!

  • Search for the following: layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

  • Edit the value to something lower than the existing and see if the JIRA popup appears properly now.

  • Open Google Chrome

  • Click "CTRL" + "-" keys to make screen smaller so all the buttons shown.
