Well, well, it helped! :)

When I did increase size of my screen.

I use mostly Ctrl +/- and Ctrl-0 to normalize than Ctrl-wheel. The
chars +/-/0 come to help from numeric part of keyboard.

Thank you. It helped only in Firefox browser not in Opera for Debian.

Thankfully the font size in Firefox is not growing in size as much as
the screen to have the "Help" jumped into its correct place.

Thank you once more.

Yes that has been annoying me too for years, it makes the system menu
inaccessible. It happens if the browser decides to render things
differently than on the developers' screens. Mostly this happens if the
browser window is too small because e.g. the screen is too small, but
also happens when using a different font to increase legibility. At the
same time there is a large stupid grey area on the right side for a
complete waste of space.

Try temporarily reducing the browser text size (ctrl-scrollwheeldown) to
access the system menu.
Or try one of the other themes (System->General) if you're lucky enough
to get there.

I moved the search to Firefox. I found simpler way to correct the CSS.

It should be changed from padding-right:27px to 20 px in
#navigation ul li declaration in CSS.


See the screenshot:

Alas, everything in WWW dir is coded in php, js and the Hell knows in
what language else. Perhaps pfsense author will be kind to correct the
error? I hope so.
