Expected Result:

When sending a message with a hyperlink, any text within that message/paragraph which won’t fit in the current window should wrap onto the next line within the current window. When resizing the window, this should change where the wrap in the text occurs.

Actual Result:

When sending a message with a hyperlink, the text sent remains on one line and cannot be scrolled to the right to read the remaining text.

This should wrap the text perfectly.

This will send the message on just one line.

Workaround:

Try to copy the line and paste it into the compose box (or some other text editor) in order to read what was written.

Haven’t been able to repro on iOS or Android. Not sure what the PR that introduced it was. Perhaps https://github.com/Expensify/Expensify.cash/pull/2320? @yuwenmemon?
