This error indicates that there is a layout issue where a field is overlapping with other UI elements (panels) in the application.
  Cause:
  
  Layout Configuration: The most common cause of this error is improper layout configuration in the BSP application. This can happen if the dimensions of the field or panel are not set correctly, leading to overlaps.
  CSS Issues: Custom CSS styles applied to the application might be causing elements to overlap.
  Dynamic Content: If the content of the field is dynamic and changes size, it may overlap with other elements if not properly managed.

  Test with Different Data: If the field content is dynamic, test the application with various data inputs to see if the overlap occurs consistently or only with specific data.
  Debugging Tools: Use browser developer tools to inspect the layout and see how elements are rendered. This can help identify the cause of the overlap.
