Question

Expanding text in an auto-sized popup window can cause the text to overflow

First Topic includes a popup link. This includes rather long expanding text. When this is activated, the popup is too small to show everything, and has no scrolling possibility. Anyone know a workaround?

I tried to report this as a bug through the Adobe Feature Request/Bug Report Form, but it vanished into thin air and I can't check whether it was recorded or not...

Instead of an autosizing popup you could define a size that allows for the expansion or add some blank lines at the end of the popup topic, on opening there will be white space at the end but it provides expansion space. The latter will not work where the popup topics are long enough to invoke scroll bars.
