Basically the cck display fields page is being partially covered up by a navigation menu in the sidebar. There probably isn't too much you can do about this, but I just wanted to point it out.

Yeah, hard one, you can set a z-index on the table and other trickery to make it appear over the sidebar blocks rather than underneath, like I have one on the themes list page, but then it can cover a critical nav menu items etc.

Generally I don't have blocks enabled in my admin setion at all, none, instead I use the Administration Menu module for all Admin navigation. If I need some other menus I'll line them up in the tertiary content region using Skinr, either many blocks or use one the menu style classes.

Dude, its not a bug, this is gonna happen in any fixed width design that is content source ordered.

Thanks for the feedback, I wasn't really sure what category I should put it under, maybe "Supprot request"? I think I'll take your lead and just remove any blocks from the admin theme. Thanks again for the response.
