As a KB Writer or editor I need to add showfor picker options to KB articles.
The recommended method is to use the "V" icon designed to provide checkboxes for the necessary option or combinations of options.

The dialogue is however too long to display on the page and so can not be used.

There is an icon that opens the showfor picker when a KB article is being written or edited. It is supposed to simplify adding the necessary code for the showfor picker options. This is the recommended method to add the necessary code per Michał See: > https://support.mozilla.org/t5/Knowledge-Base-L10n-Discussions/How-to-insert-buttons-keys-for-s-etc/m-p/1382580#M6506 We do not yet have any proper contributors documentation on writing editing and reviewing KB articles so I have filed bug 1351840 (I have already filed a related bug for documentation on use of the AAQ support forum bug 1348898 ) Other working buttons are requested in bug 1346821 and although other methods may be being considered, surely we need some working method of producing and editing fully featured kb articles, and as a priority we need the showfor system sorting out.
User Story: (updated)
After selecting some content and opening the Platform/Version tool ("V" icon in the Rich Text editor, I also don't see any way to "OK" or submit the options I've selected. As John reported, the dialog box is too long to fully display, as shown in the attached screenshot. I tried pressing "Enter" on the keyboard to submit my choices but that doesn't work. I also tried unchecking the extra "Customize this article" pickers (see bug 1346625) before editing the article but that didn't work either.
