Note that shouldn’t be a problem in most cases and you shouldn’t have to scroll 
anywhere since the content is inside a textarea with scrollbars and the 
preview/save/cancel buttons are outside of it and only reasonable resolution 
they are always visible.

Just tested on a small 1024x76 resolution and they’re very visible and there’s 
still vertical room:

And in full screen it’s the same.

So I’m curious to understand when it’s a problem for you. There’s probably 
something I’m missing.

Thanks
