Description
Describe the bug
This is and UI issue. When I click on a card, the details view appear on the right. When the title of the card is long, the text is wrapped with line breaks. If I click on the title to edit the text, the wrapping disappears and the text field is only a single line. This is very distracting as (1) the layout unexpectedly change and (2) editing a long text in a single line text field is a pain.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create a new card with a long title.
- Click on the card.
- Look at the details view on the right.
- Click on the title in the details view.
Expected behavior
Keep the wrapping of the text.
Screenshots
Before I have clicked on the title.

After I have clicked on the title.
