Restrict lines on edit #108

Closed rthangam closed 7 years ago

rthangam commented 7 years ago

It would be gr8 to restrict the users not to add more or reduce lines while editing comments. This is our requirement and i found it not straightforward to implement a fix

It's definitely not very straightforward to implement due to the requirement of having to be responsive across different screen sizes, which basically means that the comment would have to be exactly identical in character count as the previous one, which isn't humanely possible if you want to allow users to be able to edit their comments at all.

This is thus unfortunately something we're not planning to support.

Thanks for your comments. I tried and was almost there but it is inconsistent.
