overlap problem

Sorry about my poor English. I'm trying to report this by screenshot.
It happens when the codes are long enough and you scroll down.

This is a problem with the Atom API for markers. I've opened an issue at atom/atom#6857 — I need them to fix it before I can address this, unfortunately.

Or rather, I could fix it for us, but at risk of breaking other packages (as I mention on that thread). I think it's unlikely that any packages depend on the exact z-index of the tab bar, so if they don't get a fix done soon I'll just do that.

Went ahead and did this. Shipped in v0.4.0!

Thanks Will.

This issue is still present in v0.7.1

This comment shows the issue clearly.

Block decorations should be the way forward. http://blog.atom.io/2016/02/03/introducing-block-decorations.html

@rgbkrk I've tried the following with Atom 1.7.0-dev-7040035 and it doesn't seem to work:

@n-riesco if you remove this line the result should be displayed. But of course the styling will be totally messed up.

@lgeiger Here's how it looks like after removing position: absolute:
