{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"`ask_user` User input formatting issues","articleBody":"### Describe the bug\n\nWhen the user enters text into the \"Other\" section of a user response, if they go more than two lines, it just disappears (the text is recorded, you just can't see it being typed anymore). This feels really weird. I can't scroll down to see it or anything. I have to hope I spell good enough...\nSomething similar happens when doing a multi-line \"free response\" as well.\n\n### Affected version\n\n1.0.60\n\n### Steps to reproduce the behavior\n\n1. Have the agent ask you for input with a multiple choice question with \"other\" option and/or multi-line free response\n2. Type a lot of text that takes up more than 2 or 3 lines (can make terminal smaller to force line wrap sooner).\n3. See that text disappears into the darkness, also bottom divider line disappears too.\n\n### Expected behavior\n\nI would expect that the text area just expands to show my text similar to the normal text entry during chat. I want to always be able to see the text as I write it!\n\n### Additional context\n\nIn both of these images I have text that continues on below the last line, it just isn't rendered.\n\n### Other Input\n\u003cimg width=\"2537\" height=\"355\" alt=\"Image\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/006ef166-5590-4313-a40b-544aba690256\" /\u003e\nNote that the cursor is stuck at the end of the first line (doesn't show in screenshot)\n\n### Multiline Input\n\u003cimg width=\"1197\" height=\"417\" alt=\"Image\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/77f77af1-6e39-4de9-be54-b1f801ebc4a1\" /\u003e\nNote that the cursor is moving along the hidden bottom line but all the text is invisible (doesn't show in screenshot).","author":{"url":"https://github.com/logar16","@type":"Person","name":"logar16"},"datePublished":"2026-06-08T19:53:29.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/3722/copilot-cli/issues/3722"}
