[🐛] Truncated text in Android Markdown messages

Open mccraigmccraig opened this issue 6 months ago • 0 comments

Issue

Message text sometimes gets truncated on Android when the Accessibility/Display size and text/Bold text setting is enabled

this screencap shows the issue with the bottom two messages: while this screencap has markdown font-weight constrained to bold in the theme, and renders correctly:

We have currently constrained the font-weight to 500 in the theme to work around the issue, which works - but the theme font-wegith completely overrides the accessibility bold setting, so users get no choice anymore, everyone gets weight 500

Steps to reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. on an Android chat app, enable the Accessibility/Display size and text/Bold text
  2. send a variety of messages - some will be truncated, presumably depending on some inscrutable property of the message text

Expected behavior

All the text in a message should be displayed, and overflows should wrap to the next line - text should never be truncated
