large text box needs a carriage return on the last line

[Mike]

For the next InfoPath patch: For multiline text boxes, if the last line
contains g j p q y you may need to enter a carriage return to make the
bottoms appear. If you tab out or click away without entering a carriage
return it may cut off the bottoms.

Your QA staff missed this defect in the code.

Because your height is hard-coded, this is likely the issue. Try increasing or decreasing the height a little in order to completely show or hide that last cut-off line of text.

I don't experience this.
What other settings do you have on your text box?
Have you tried increasing the padding?
Is wrap text enabled? If so, which scrolling setting are you using?
