Display errors in the admin

Hi, I am following the readme and getting the following display in the admin:

It seems that the "json"/"properties" tabs are somewhat miss-aligned. This is the stock admin on Django 6.0.2.

Hey!

Thanks for the report. Yes, that does look a bit ugly. I have a case which is ugly in a different way here:

I wonder where the buttons would fit better.

If you have complete freedom on where to put them I'd attach them at the bottom border (of the field) on the left. That is remove the round corners on the top and let them stick out like bookmarks on a ring binder.

An example of how it could look:

Thanks! Yes, I'll try implementing that. I have to take a closer look at it since prop can be repated when using nested objects or objects in arrays.

Notes for myself:

The reason for the awkward location (negative top and 20% right) is that the popover always opens to the right, so we cannot right align the buttons.

We could move the buttons down using absolute positioning, but then we have to create some additional space at the bottom when using nested objects:

We should be able to do something with has() queries: The problem is that the nesting of the HTML is somewhat awkward, and the theming support doesn't provide us with too much rope. (The json-editor code is quite hairy. I cannot find a JSON editor alternative supporting table layout for arrays, and I really really want that. Table layout doesn't have the nested property button either, that's an additional bonus for a less cluttered interface.)

https://github.com/germanbisurgi/jedison?tab=readme-ov-file seems to be the new thing by the json-editor maintainer(s), but it doesn't support all features we need either.
