Description

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Add new board with Content Calendar template
  2. Change Due Date of any card to today (so that it is easily visible in Due Date Calendar view)
  3. Switch to Due Date Calendar view
  4. Add 5 more cards with today due date
  5. Click on +2 more button to show all the cards for today

Expected behavior

Cards in the popup should have some limit for the width like in other view types (for example 260px in board view).

Research direction
Look at the calendar view component in the codebase, likely under webapp/src/components/calendar. Check how the board view limits card width (e.g., 260px) and apply similar max width to the popup cards shown when clicking '+2 more'. The popup rendering component may be separate; inspect the relevant CSS classes or inline styles.
