Max number of characters? #725

I'm just getting started trying out ink using inky, and I'm running into an issue right from the start. I don't see anything in the docs about this, but it appears there is a character limit beyond which text no longer shows up?

As you can see here, the text and options are displayed in the preview window as expected.

But if my opening paragraph is long, it no longer shows up in the preview.

By trial and error, I figured out that it shows up to 243 characters. Beyond that, the text disappears.

Is this a bug in inky, or is it expected behavior?

Just found the discussion forum. I'm going to migrate this over there, since it's more of a question than a bug report.
