Issues with Settings menu
The settings menu of dash-to-dock is a bit broken in Gnome version 42, using any version from 71 and up. The settings tabs convert into tiny lines after a split second upon entering the menu. Occasionally it closes on its own or refuses to open entirely Screencast from 27-08-22 10:50:12.webm Here's another recording with the cursor visible

Just scroll up and you'll be able to see the tabs.
Oh right, thanks I hadn't noticed that. I was trying to scroll in the central area. It still closes suddenly sometimes for no reason though.
I can confirm this, if you don't scroll or resize the window, tabs are hardly visible. I suggest we take a look at the default size of the settings window, see if we can make it larger to display all items.
I don't see a reason to change the size of the window as everything fits without the scrolling, so it isn't really needed unless new settings are planned to be added. If I remember correctly in versions prior to 70 it never existed.
:+1: on this issue.
In a mobile setting (e.g. PinePhone Pro, Librem 5) running GNOME Shell, the current settings window is rendered completely unusable without triggering other button clicks.
The settings window should become more responsive, not fixed in any size.
Noticed that as well. Removing the large amount of extra padding at bottom of the first settings pane "Position and size" could maybe be a simple fix or make the issue less noticable -- I am guessing the large rectangle container causes the view to scroll down to try to fit it in view?
