needtable not shown in RTD

[2Eagle2]

Details

When running the basic example in Sphinx from https://sphinxcontrib-needs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html#

database style table is not shown when using RTD

Minimal Example:

.. req:: My first requirement
requirement 1

.. req:: My second requirement
requirement 2

.. needtable::
:style: datatables

Expected Result

the table is shown as in example

Actual Result

only control panels of database is shown but not actual table

When investigate
changing in theme.css

from:

.wy-table-responsive {
overflow: auto
}

to:

.wy-table-responsive {
overflow: visible
}

seems to fix the issue

@2Eagle2 Can you put some screanshots with/out the fix? Can you replicate this locally? Looks like you are using the alabaster theme,

sorry for late response.
here are the screenshots

(it is shown in firefox - the same results is also in IE)

with fix

[2Eagle2]

As you can see - this is minimalistic example
And yes I can reproduce it locally.
I am sending you whole source example:
doc.zip

In other themes like "alabaster" it works without need of any fix.

Thank you, I'm moving this issue to the rtd theme repo

This is not a theme issue, but an issue of the sphinxcontrib-needs extension. It uses floating elements that move div.wy-table-responsive out of view.
Unfortunately this theme can not accommodate all Sphinx extensions that exist. I suggest opening an issue at https://github.com/useblocks/sphinxcontrib-needs, perhaps they have a nice way of solving it without needing custom CSS in your project.
