Presubmission checklist
- [ ] I am interested in working on code that would fix this bug. (This is not required to submit a bug report.)
- [X] I have done a search and believe that an issue does not already exist for this bug in the GitHub repository.
- [X] I have read and agree to abide by this project's Code of Conduct.
I think what happened here is the list of stories to import is too long for the dialog and the button is getting cut off. https://github.com/klembot/twinejs/issues/1183 is something similar.
Possible workarounds are to use View > Zoom Out until the button becomes visible, or to slice up your archive into smaller files and import piecemeal. To separate out your archive, open it in a text editor. Each of your stories is between a <tw-storydata> and </tw-storydata> tag--copy that into a separate file and Twine should be able to import it.
Isn't the solution to both of these just to add an overflow-y: scroll to both of those elements?
Yes, that's the real solution here but the workarounds I was providing were for in the meantime.
