Description

Describe the bug

When editing a contact in web gui there are some texts in the input fields truncated and unreadable. There is a lot free space on the screen, so no need to truncate the texts in this way.

Expected behavior

Alle texts should be readable and not truncated, if there is many space free on the screen

Texts are truncated and will be unreadable any longer

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Nextcloud web GUI while editing a contact, using the described Firefox and Windows setup if available. Inspect the editing dialogue for truncated input-field text; done means the text remains readable when there is available space, without changing the contact-editing behavior.
