Input helpText is hidden by modal boundaries

[TomSesselmann]

Hey guys, I know you can change the placement attribute of a Strike Tooltip, but how would I change it for the Strike Input helpText?

Or maybe the tooltip should just appear on top of everything.

We have plans to expose strike_tooltip's placement attribute on all form elements with helpText available (perhaps called helpTextPlacement), which may not be available for some time.

For now you have a few options: you can edit strike_input and/or strike_textarea and find the line where it calls <c:strike_input/> to hardcode a placement attribute, expose your own helpTextPlacement attribute that receives the placement value from the parent (with a default of 'top'), or you can add the .slds-is-expanded CSS class on the modal body's container to set overflow: visible; (which can be problematic due to the SLDS modal's max-height).
