When composing a long message, it can be helpful to expand the compose box to display more text and avoid distractions. Note that the compose box also stretches automatically when you type a long message.

<FlattenedSteps> <StartComposing />
  1. Move your mouse to the compose box area.
  2. Click the <ExpandDiagonalIcon />, <MaximizeDiagonalIcon />, or <CollapseDiagonalIcon /> button in the top right corner of the text box. </FlattenedSteps>
<ZulipTip> Which button you see depends on the current size of the compose box. </ZulipTip>
