Feature hasn't been suggested before.

  • I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.

Describe the enhancement you want to request

Hi, I frequently use dictation software to write prompts. Since dictation tools can occasionally make mistakes, it's important for me to review and edit the dictated text before submitting it.

Currently, when dictated text is pasted, it appears compressed or collapsed (as shown in the attached image). This makes it difficult to view the full content and, in some cases, prevents editing altogether.

It would be very helpful to:

  • Allow users to disable text compression for pasted content, or
  • Provide an option to expand and view the entire pasted text

As more people rely on dictation software to input prompts, having full visibility and editability of pasted text is essential for usability and accuracy.

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

  • #8501: A way to expand the pasted text (e.g. [Pasted ~1 lines]) - This is also requesting the ability to view/expand pasted text before submission

Feel free to ignore if these don't fully address your specific case.
