Pop-up windows going out of a screen visible area

I can't explain it well but it's visible on screenshot. When character  screen with items opens in a specific positon on screen, then hovering mouse cursor over an item sometimes makes its pop-up window (in its upper part) to go out of a visible screen area. 
Can it be adjusted somehow? It's very annoying.

That is my full screen area on 32" monitor G-Master GCB3280QSU.

I get this too and it annoys me when this happens when trying to look at items in my inventory (usually modable items as the pop-up is quite long). I haven't been able to figure out anything that fixes it. It started doing this quite a few updates ago.

I run SWTOR fullscreen(windowed) with a dual monitor setup (SWTOR on one monitor and everything else on a second monitor). 

It doesn't do it all the time. I was trying to replicate it now and it would only happen if I had the character screen at the very bottom of my screen and tried to look at the equipped lightsaber stats. I have my global scale set to 0.85

It definitely is a bug, the useful area of a screen is limted to space between Utility bar 1 (top left corner) and Utility bar 2 (bottom right corner). If any of secondary popups goes outside, it must be a bug. There would be no logic in allowing to set the popups going outside visible area, therefore I don't believe it can be controlled by any setting.

Devs, please find a cause and fix it.

I thought it was just me as when I asked my guild they said they didn't have this issue.

For me this happens often when item is not at bottom of my inventory, but can happen there as well, as you said it's not all the time but it does get old fast. 

Sometimes I need to drag gear to bottom of inventory and move inventory window to bottom of screen for stats to show in full, but sometimes that doesn't even work. My ui is scaled pretty small for boxes, just Beacuse i don't like it cluttering screen when things are open, so definitely not a ui scale issue as happens wheen ui is default and when not
