Bug ID: 161413

OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal

A screenshot of the clipped diagram
Open a help page with a wide diagram, like
https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/sbasic/shared/03090202.html?DbPAR=BASIC
The diagram in the Syntax section may be clipped, as in the attachment; it
won't allow to scroll, nor does it show a hint that it's incomplete. This may
confuse users, making them believe that e.g. on the mentioned "For" statement
help page, the syntax ends with "Exit For" - see
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/basic-syntax-error-unexpected-symbol-end-sub/106496,
which was likely driven by that.
The place of clipping depends on the browser window width; unexpectedly, when
resizing it narrower, the page content gets wider, and the clipping moves to
the right. It looks generally inconsistent. But that may be a different issue
(although, I would expect it to be always not narrower than the widest
non-wrappable element).
