Initially I added this as a support request, but I figure it must be a glitch… I recreated in a different browsers on ipad 26.2 and 26.3

Basically, if I hit the button in the first screenshot, the composer goes off the screen (second screenshot). I can’t undo this action, and I can’t see that button anymore after I click it. What is it supposed to do?

Thanks…

This is our peek-mode, which should only apply on large (enough) screens:

Can you please try if you see the button on Meta too? Because I don’t, which is how it is intended I belief.

I can’t repro on my own tablet. Which tablet (size) are you using?

_Maybe_ your tablet sits just at an awkward cutoff point for either styling.

Thanks for the reply. I checked Meta after I saw the situation on my instance - I do _not_ see the button - so I can’t reproduce there either. So maybe it is something with the theme? You are welcome to try my instance if you want to repro: [https://si.discourse.group](https://si.discourse.group)

Also, my tablet size is standard ipad pro - no customizations

You can select the #horizon-theme here as well at [Discourse Meta - The Official Support Forum for Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/my/preferences/interface) or by using the selector at the bottom of the sidebar. Then you should be able to see the button here too.

Ok got it - I saw the button and was able to reproduce on meta

Also confirmed that if I switch to classic theme, there is no issue. (I’m happy to stick with that for now… at least we’ve isolated it to the theme).

This should be fixed by [UX: peek-mode composer fixes for 13in tablets by chapoi · Pull Request #38533 · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/38533)

Let me know if it isn’t after updating please 🙏
