Custom color options for selected text in the block editor for WordPress WordPress 5.9.1 are obscured

[drusso1]

I've seen this problem on two WordPress 5.9.1 sites that I maintain while using the Chrome browser:

​https://haikupedia.org/

​https://nc-haiku.org/

Custom color options for selected text in the block editor for WordPress WordPress 5.9.1 are obscured by the right panel for Block options.

1. Open a post.

2. Select text.

3. In the right panel for Block options, select Text Color > Selected Text Color. The default color palette displays.

4. Click in the custom color area (gray and white squares at the top).

5. The custom color control displays. To type a hex code for a custom color, I think you must click a button to the right of the default hex code. However, the relevant controls are hidden behind the right panel for Block options. See hidden button-jpg below.

Hello, welcome to WordPress Core Trac and thank you for opening this ticket @drusso1,

Looks like it was introduced in version 5.9, not 5.9.1.

Then, let's move it for 5.9.2 consideration.

Also, this would probably need to be reported upstream on Gutenberg GitHub repository as it is specific to the Editor: ​https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues.

Would you mind to report this upstream please? If not, I'll copy-paste this ticket description there in a couple days :)

Thank you!
