Description

Description

I believe this is a more general issue than just security-docs, but I'm starting here and we can triage/transfer appropriately.

For any given Notes section, the notes icon (and its ::after content of "NOTE") occludes part of the notes text, resulting in the first character

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Navigate to a docs page with a Notes section
  2. Attempt to select just the second line (or, more specifically, the first character of the second line) of content with a mouse

Screen Recording

Note also that if the note content is in e.g. an <ul>, the extra margin added to the <li> content prevents this issue from happening.

Which documentation set(s) does this bug apply to?
