Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Chat - Status emoji is not fully visible in conversation page

What is the root cause of that problem?

The root cause is because the emoji status lacks of a min height so when the page get smaller, the meesage date gets relevance and "overlaps" the emoji

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

In

App/src/styles/styles.js

Lines 3918 to 3922 in 1ae51cc

	userReportStatusEmoji: {
	fontSize: variables.fontSizeNormal,
	marginRight: 4,
	},
	draggableTopBar: {

we should add the style minHeight: variables.fontSizeNormalto match the default size of the emoji in case of this value changes.

Solution Working.

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

[strepanier03]

I'm not able to reproduce this any longer on 1.368-15, can anyone confirm if they can still repro?

[jscardona12]

Hi @strepanier03, still reproducible on latest main.

[strepanier03]

All right, I'll move it forward, thank you @jscardona12 for testing again

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Status emoji is clipped in report.

What is the root cause of that problem?

The message date may overlap with this emoji when screen gets smaller. Since both the message date and message sender specifies the flexShrink behavior while status emoji does not thus the page will automatically distribute content base on that.

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

Add flexShrink: 0 to styles.userReportStatusEmoji just like we did with ReportActionItemDate.

App/src/styles/styles.js

Lines 3965 to 3968 in cd9e86e

	userReportStatusEmoji: {
	fontSize: variables.fontSizeNormal,
	marginRight: 4,
	},

App/src/styles/styles.js

Lines 1642 to 1647 in c36ac0c

	chatItemMessageHeaderTimestamp: {
	flexShrink: 0,
	color: theme.textSupporting,
	fontSize: variables.fontSizeSmall,
	paddingTop: 2,
	},

Note: The minWidth solution does not address this issue on real mobile browsers and with different emojis (i.e., still clipped), since it is set with a fixed width. We should let the content dynamically adjusts.
