I just noticed that a textarea field isn’t scrollable nor draggable regarding its size. Is there a way to enable this? It’s very user experience unfriendly to have a static size and no scrolling. This makes it harder to work with longer pages I think. Most likely I miss something fundamental here.
I would like to be able to scroll up/down inside the textfield and to be able to drag the field regarding width and height (making it wider or longer).
At the moment I get a very long textfield if there is much text in it. I think it’s better if the textfield is scrollable because I rarely have to see the whole content at once (especially if it can’t fit my screen and I have to scroll the page anyway).
An example given: Just write several lines of text in this forum. Both - the input and preview - become scrollable.
I found out that the browsers default behavior for a textarea input field is overwritten by this: width: 878px; overflow-y: hidden; height: 720px;
For example if you remove the overflow-y: hidden; part you get a draggable and scrollable (ugly) textarea. I’m not sure if this is a desired effect by the developers. Maybe some kind of js + default css will offer a proper solution where clipping is no issue but the user can work as freely as he or she wishes.
