Hello! I noticed a bug while I was trying to write a longer post in the Micro.blog iOS app (version 3.0.4) that you can’t scroll further down the writing text area if you write beyond a certain length.
Here’s a preview of when I was writing the post and then tested until when the text gets cut off on my end:
I was also adding images to the post, and that seems to be overlapping the text area field, too. When I try in the space next to the images, I can’t select the text that’s underneath it.
There was one point when the text area field became scrollable, but it made the section for showing uploaded images become a super big area:
It became like this after I exited the app (while still in the New Post view)to use another app, then changed back to Micro.blog. If I close the New Post view and open it again, it goes back to the initial bug.
Hoping this helps! Wasn’t sure where to bring up bug reports, please let me know where to do that if ever I do encounter any while using the app.
@manton Along the same lines, in the replies I’m seeing the text area not scrolling up when typing a longer one. As a result, the reply text ends up running into the character count graphic at the bottom. Looks like more padding is required at the bottom?
I’ve been having this same issue for as long as I can remember. Here’s an example:
In this case, I sent the text to the iOS from Drafts using its URL scheme, but I run into the same issue in other instances as well.
Related: Is there a URL scheme to send things into the web editor where I usually end up having to go to avoid this issue (to check character counts before posting) rather than the app?
None of the edit screens on iOS scroll well with any post that is longer than one screen and does not have a title. Once there’s a title, it tends to work ok for me. Unfortunately, if you’re writing long replies, that won’t help because the title bar never shows up.
Something is janky about that view when not showing the title bar.
