Original Pull Request: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/pull/5754

State: closed
Merged: No


When clicking on the category for a transaction in the transactions list, the menu that appears is frustratingly short, especially if you have created a lot of categories. This removes the maxHeight style property and allows it to auto size appropriately. If there is a reason for the height to be limited in certain scenarios I can revisit to settle on a better value or responsive value.

I am attaching some before and after screenshots below. I have added a bunch of extra "dummy" categories to highlight the change.
