When trying to add content, the select content window shows up, but it appears to be layered behind the design view menus, because they are visible over the window and any click over them activates them and not the window controls behind. This makes it very ugly and difficult to add content, but still works after a fashion. We are using Plone 2.1.3 with no other products.

Steps to reproduce:: Create new plone instance
Install Composite Pack
Add navigation page
Go to design view
Try to add content

I think this is related to css zindex changes that happened in Plone 2.1.3 to solve IE problems.

This would imply the need to modify some kupu css (the select content drawer is a kupu drawer).

I wont have time to look at this quickly. If you have a fix, lemme know !

add the following declaration to a custom CSS file:

.kupu-drawer {
z-index: 20000 !important;
}

this workaround was successfully tested in Firefox 1.5 and IE 6 on Windows XP, and Firefox 1.5 on Mac OS X.

best regards

Where does the file with Kupu declaration need to be placed--or is this being appended to existing file?
