Describe the bug:
In the Alert UI fly out (from the management section) when you select a very log index name or pattern for the index source the "Indices to query" box blocks the "Time Field" selector. Barrier seems to be around 67 characters.
This came up when I was selecting a ML anomalies index as the source. The index was auto named and created when I created a "categories" ML job through the Logs UI.
Steps to reproduce:
Expected behavior:
I would expect either the time picker to be pushed to the next row, or the index name to be truncated. Somehow allowing the time field to be selected.
Screenshots (if relevant):
Anomaly index pattern chosen and the Time Picker box is no longer on screen
Clicking out of the selector shows the error of no time field,
Here you can see the time field being pushed off screen
Errors in browser console (if relevant):
Provide logs and/or server output (if relevant):
Any additional context:
Most indices will not be this long, but since this was an index auto created from the Logs UI / ML integration I could see some users running across this issue when trying to create ML alerts with the new Alerting framework until an actual workflow is created.
