When using the timeline addon and editing an existing item in the timeline, clicking on the edit icon triggers a modal window but the position of the modal window is partially outside the bounds of the overall window. It's not possible to scroll the modal window or move it, making some of the fields impossible to edit.
The workaround seems to be to close the window and do it again, on the second load it positions correctly.
