The new Jewel upgrade includes a new Text Area with a state included. Before, I had this wrapped in a Row and added the modifier height(IntrinsicSize.Min). After transitioning, it seems like this modifier can't apply anymore. Do you have any tips?

I suspect it's because there is a scrollbar now. You can try setting the scrollbar style to null and seeing if that helps

I will try that, thanks!

Another addition because of the TextArea update is that my cursor and placeholder text are not really aligned. I am trying to play around with padding but not sure if there's an easier way to do this or if I'm missing something? Thank you 🙏

That doesn't seem misaligned to me... The bug if anything is that the placeholder should be drawn behind the cursor and not in front

Ah makes sense, I will look into this more. Thank you so much!

I filed https://github.com/JetBrains/jewel/issues/610 to track the z-order issue. It's lower priority but it could also be a tiny fix so it may come sooner rather than later

Thank you!! I subscribed to it. I appreciate you making the issue 🙌

No worries :)
