I have two instance of date-picker embed view (label + date picker). Both have same parameters. Response of both date picker is different: ![20250214_145509](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/b/d/bdd327404f70d5fe4ae3884b446297c1c3a56d36.jpeg) The other will show as popup modal: ![20250214_145524](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/4/b/4be678f700d026b55e3fbc713fef0f222860439e.jpeg) Why does it show as popup modal? ---

IIRC, it has to be modal if there isn't room at the point of display within the parent container. ---
