On WP 5.8-beta4-51243 Block preview contents get cut-off

Description

WP 5.8-beta4-51243 Theme: Twenty Twenty One.

This might be an isolated issue.

Block preview gets cut-off and there is no way the user can read the complete content unless the user zooms out in the browser.

Here the warning gets cut-off and since there is no option to scroll, the user can't necessarily install the required plugin. In my case I know it's about "Product Table" plugin since it's mentioned once in the warning, but if the original preview text/preview image was larger(for eg: preview text in site logo) then there is a chance that more content would get cut-off since it is impossible to scroll.

Expected preview :

This can be solved hopefully by increasing the width of the preview block, or by limiting the characters the plugin developers can submit for preview.

Is this specific to 5.8. It's probably a bug that always existed, can we move this to a GitHub issue to debug it properly? https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/new/choose

When tested with stable 5.7.2 the preview cut-off exists, even though I had to increase the zoom level this time.

  • Milestone 5.8 deleted
  • Resolution set to worksforme
  • Status changed from new to closed

I am actually unable to reproduce this on 5.7.2 or 5.8 beta 4.

To test:

  • Fresh install.
  • Install Woocommerce
  • Install the Gutenberg Block for WooCommerce Product Table block through the block inserter.
  • Hover over the WooCommerce Product Table block.

I've tried with both Twenty Twenty-One and Twenty Twenty active, and in three different browsers on MacOS (Safari, Chrome, Firefox).

I'm going to close this out as a worksforme. Please retry with a fresh install to see if you're able to reproduce. If someone is still seeing the issue, feel free to reopen with more details.

When testing with the latest version 5.8-beta4-51251, I guess there has been a design shift in the block inserter(from looking at the initial screenshot).

I can't reproduce the issue with WooCommerce + Product Table block right now, and everything works as expected, as long as my zoom level is normal.

Further Isolated condition:

In case the user has set their browser zoom level (say 125%), then even the preview of default 'column block' gets cut-off.

Like I said this might be a very rare case as not much users will be working with increased zoom level.

Maybe a solution like auto scroll of preview in-case the user hover on top that block for 'x+' seconds can be a temporary solution.
