Not sure what i'm doing wrong here but on a fresh install of Drupal 7, when I open the admin page and do something that opens the admin overlay - e.g. create a blog post, I can't scroll to the bottom of the overlay. It just seems to stop. So I can't actually see any of the save / submit buttons.
I've attached a screen shot. Notice the scroll bar on the right is at the bottom of the window but i've not reached the bottom of the page.
Baffled by this one. Any ideas?

To add, it's happening on both Chrome and Safari on the Mac.
I've found that highlighting text, e.g. left clicking and scrolling down the page forces the page to scroll to the bottom, and then the scroll works as expected. But moving on to a different admin section reproduces the problem.

I've found you can disable

I've found you can disable the overlay on the modules page, so will do that for now.
Not sure I particularly like the overlay anyway.

Shortcut bar is the problem for me

I had the same problem and i found that collapsing the shortcut bar in the toolbar push the overlay up.
Hope it can help.

Fix

Go to modules --> overlay
Find --> overlay-parent.css

Add this css at the bottom :

overlay-container, .overlay-modal-background, .overlay-element {

height: 100%;
left: 0;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
top: 0;
width: 100%;
z-index: 500;
}

Thanks for this ^^

Is there a related issue for this in core? This is a really annoying problem but donkasok's patch seems to fix it.

Thank you donkasok! I just did this and it fixed it. But can someone answer me why the heck this is an issue in core???? I've been a long time D6 user and I have used D7 in the past for a few projects, but I just installed D7 fresh and I'm on a mac and I can't believe this is an issue shipped with core. Any one have any ideas why this is the case?

Actually donkasok's code is incorrect. It fixed scrolling a bit, but then other strange things started happening. This code is actually already in the file, just change absolute to fixed. Check this link:
