Description

This issue respects the following points:
Describe the bug

When I backspace a newline in the notes app, the "Rich Text Mode" button shows up in the lower right corner and obscures my cursor and text. I have to scroll up to see between the button and the keyboard so I know what I'm typing.

Expected behavior

The button should not obscure my typing view at the end of a note and should be placed in a less-distracting location, such as in the 3-dot menu or in one of the upper corners. Leaving/entering rich text mode isn't a common-enough task to have such prominence in the editor.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Notes Android editor on Android 14: backspace a newline and observe the Rich Text Mode button near the keyboard. Locate the editor entry point and the button's placement logic, then verify that the cursor and text remain visible at the end of a note without requiring scrolling.
