Problem

On unfolded Android layouts, composer height depends on the navigation style. Growing its padding alone also leaves fixed-radius corners and small controls inside the taller bar at larger text sizes.

Change

Use the actual Android split-layout state for both One UI and Material. Derive the resting composer height from navigation sizing, keep its corner radius at half that height, and use the same text-scaled row size for send, attachment, model, and voice controls. At app text 16 pt the resting target is 56 dp; at 22 pt it is 77 dp, with 61 dp controls. Multiline text reserves space above the enlarged controls.

Dictation shares the row height and padding, including its flip animation. Compact phone/cover layouts and narrow single-pane windows retain their existing sizing. iOS geometry, messaging, and stored preferences are unchanged.

Scope and approval

Alex requested this focused correction after #25758 merged and supplied feedback on the larger composer's corners and send button. It addresses one Android split-composer sizing problem and qualifies as a small visual bug fix without a prior issue. No new setting, contract, provider, transport, web, or desktop behavior is added. No maintainer approval is claimed.

Verification

Takeover update at 84316265ac: merged main 54c5f25249 with a merge commit, preserved RTL editor positioning and current dictation behavior, removed the editor minimum width only in Android split panes, and kept large dictation circles at the same minimum size as send. Blacksmith vp run check:changed github/main passed format, lint, knip, both affected typechecks, and React Compiler checks (10 tests). Both independent code reviews approved this head. Native interaction and fresh before/after evidence remain unverified because device access is disabled in this environment. The captures below predate this update.

  • Rebased onto main at 7e713926cd81 (head 9601ab802d). All three patches remain equivalent; composer geometry is preserved. The native comparisons retain their recorded capture revisions below.
  • vp run check:changed passed formatting, lint, knip, and both affected typechecks. The existing layout and floating-tab tests passed: 28 tests across two files. No cosmetic UI test was added.
  • Fresh matched native Android 17 captures using Fold8 display geometry and Google Android firmware, Iris Dark, app text 16/22 pt, and synthetic Moonbase Terminal data. Both navigation styles were checked in split view and at 22 pt on the compact cover display. The cover control bounds and visible send-circle size are unchanged.
  • The comparisons below isolate this review update: before is the previous PR head 0828639; after is b5f855a. The resting bar retains its navigation-matched height while its ends become a pill and its controls grow. A multiline draft was also exercised without submitting it. All 15 screenshots passed privacy OCR.
  • Dictation was exercised with an interactive presentation-only fixture: fixed 0:12 timer and zero audio levels. No audio was recorded and no speech service was called. The fixture is excluded from the commit. The clip shows the transition into and out of dictation at 22 pt; its black recorder letterboxing alone was cropped, preserving all 42 frames and their timestamps.
  • Physical Pixel hardware, OS freeform/split-screen transitions, and iOS were not exercised. Narrow-window behavior follows the existing responsive split-layout decision.

Walkthrough

Composer controls now use shared Android-aware sizing. In Android split view, ThreadComposer adjusts compact editor dimensions, vertical padding, surface shape, and dictation toolbar placement. Dictation control animations use heights derived from the selected size.

Changes: Composer sizing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared control dimensions
apps/mobile/src/lib/androidControlSizing.ts, apps/mobile/src/components/ComposerToolbar.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/threads/ComposerAttachmentButton.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/voice-input/ComposerDictationControl.tsx
The sizing helper now returns composerControlSize. Large toolbar, attachment, and voice action controls use the shared sizing value; large icons scale with the Android sizing scale.
Compact editor sizing and padding
apps/mobile/src/features/threads/ThreadComposer.tsx
useCompactComposerEditor accepts controlHeight and returns the compact row height. ThreadComposer uses Android split-view state and shared control sizing to set editor dimensions, composer padding, surface radius, and dictation toolbar placement.
Dictation control sizing and animation
apps/mobile/src/features/voice-input/ComposerDictationControl.tsx
Dictation draft and toolbar animations use the selected control height. Large voice action buttons use Android-aware dimensions.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Possibly related issues

  • pingdotgg/t3code#27650 — This change adjusts compact row height and expanded toolbar offsets, the layout boundary described in the issue.
  • pingdotgg/t3code#27162 — This change adjusts model-control sizing and the editor minimum-width constraint, which concern the reported overlap geometry.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 84316

In narrow Android split view, the model picker may be clipped when multiple attachments and voice input are present. The issue is localized and can be followed up.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 8431626

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Updates Android split composers to scale controls, spacing, and dictation animations consistently. The narrow-pane concern is addressed by allowing the editor to shrink; remaining exposure is limited to UI layout, with current-head native verification still unavailable.

Written by gpt-6.1-sol on behalf of Maria

Verified on Android emulator (API 35) against a real dev server

verified head 84316265ac7b8835e8c083179d1eeaa577155061 in the native android development client installed from the shared cache. metro used port 8081 and the real dev server used port 13773 with isolated /home/user/t3code/.t3 state. created a real project through the app and sent two real codex gpt-6.1-sol turns through the mobile composer. both returned real replies. no mocks, replay, showcase data, or presentation fixtures were used.

reproduced the sizing problem on github/main at 575579d68ac4bae09f8426a345d4a3eac1e90c67. comparisons use the same conversation, 1800x1600 emulator display, 240 dpi, and 22 pt app text. restarted metro with a cleared cache for the revision comparisons. main keeps 44 dp control targets; this head grows them to approximately 61 dp (91 physical pixels), in both material and one ui. the composer has pill ends and a three-line draft stays above the controls. the recording shows expansion, sending, and the second real codex reply.

also exercised the model picker and attachment menu, one ui at 16 pt in dark appearance, and the compact 1080x2400 phone layout at 420 dpi. the compact layout restores the smaller composer. uploaded mp4 playback and seeking were checked; the gif below shows the same 44-second recording.

material, main, 22 pt:

main material composer at 22 pt

material, pr head, 22 pt:

pr material composer at 22 pt

one ui, main, 22 pt:

main one ui composer at 22 pt

one ui, pr head, 22 pt:

pr one ui composer at 22 pt

one ui dark appearance at 16 pt

compact android phone composer at 16 pt

multiline expansion, real send, and codex reply recording

no code changes were needed. current-head ci checks pass; no new code checks were run for this verification-only pass.

Not verified

ios cannot run on this linux vm. real dictation and its flip animation were not exercised because this setup exposes no microphone action or speech service. physical foldable hardware, hinge transitions, an exact 320 dp detail pane, attachment submission, and compact layout at 22 pt remain unverified. the emulator crashed twice with qemu hanging-thread errors during the pass and recovered with the same isolated project data; the completed tablet checks and recording preceded those crashes. no claim of physical-device stability is made.
