Hello. I've been using the Types and Views betas on a development site that uses Many to Many post relationships through the last several updates. When I started, I was able to use the post back end to connect two different post types through a Many to Many relationship I'd created for them. However, on a recent update an issue started that kept me from doing so, and that issue continues through your most recent RC releases.

The block on the backend appears correctly, labelled by the connection name, with a list of the connected post types and And New and Connect existing buttons. However, when I try to use the Connect existing button, I get a popup with a dropdown that looks a little funky (as you can see in the screenshot, the overlay isn't covering the whole screen - this might be the cause of the issue) but lets me choose a post of the connected type, and lets me cancel, but doesn't let me save. The Save button is faded out, and the cursor doesn't change when hovered over it - it isn't clickable. The same thing happens when I try to Create a new Post to connect (see second screenshot).

I checked this with the 2017 theme, and the problem disappeared, so it is a theme conflict issue, but a major one. The theme I'm using is Stockholm: hidden link updated to the most recent version, along with the most recent version of WordPress.
