Description
Description:
When creating a new project, if a user adds a field with the same name as an existing field, the duplicate-field warning message is truncated and cannot be read in full.
Environment:
Staging
Application (app version / build / OS):
App: Mergin Maps Mobile (Android)
App version: 2026.1.1 (build 776151)
Device/OS: Samsung Galaxy A53 5G / Android 15
Steps to reproduce:
- Go to the project creation screen.
- Add one or more custom fields.
- Add another field with the same name as an existing field.
- Observe the duplicate-field validation/warning message that appears at the top of the screening section.
Actual results:
The duplicate-field warning appears, but the text is truncated (cut off) and the user cannot read the full message explaining the problem.
Expected results:
The full warning message should be visible and readable (no clipping).
