Confirmed.
The problem already existed in the previous 20220213 (RC3) nightly.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention @imk123 !
I have submitted a formal bug report to the developers here:
opened 01:04PM - 03 Mar 22 UTC
closed 02:52PM - 04 Apr 22 UTC
conclusion: resolved
topic: code
type: imperfection
criticality: high
## Describe the bug
Arduino IDE supports adding installing arbitrary boards p… latforms via [**Boards Manager**](https://docs.arduino.cc/software/ide-v2/tutorials/ide-v2-board-manager) by adding the URLs of their [package index](https://arduino.github.io/arduino-cli/dev/package_index_json-specification/) file to the "**Additional Boards Manager URLs**" preference.
Since users may have several URLs, a dedicated "**Additional Boards Manager URLs**" dialog is offered with a multi-line field.
🐛 The height of the field is very small, to the point where it is not clear that it is an input field at all.
## To Reproduce
1. Select **File > Preferences...** from the Arduino IDE menus.
1. Click the button on the right side of the "**Additional Boards Manager URLs**" field.
🐛 The height of the field is very small:
## Expected behavior
Usable input field height in the "**Additional Boards Manager URLs**" dialog, as it was in previous versions:
## Desktop
- OS: Windows 10
- Version: 2.0.0-rc4-snapshot-0fc7c78

CLI Version: 0.21.0 [10107d24]
## Additional context
I bisected the bug to https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide/commit/112153fb965f63d952d126c8244cd3f84f0a1a1b (it does not occur when using the build from the previous commit https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide/commit/69ac1f4779589d0d21ce3d37c180b3393ad6156c).
