Issue Subcategory:

Text clipped by fixed-height container

User Experience:

Users who override text spacing to improve readability lose content because text gets clipped by its container. There is no way to view the hidden text.

Repro Steps:

Launch URL https://dccentral-test.microsoft.com/training/trainers/27d6e984-54f7-4dd0-93a1-983e2136b41d/1 -->Apply text spacing --> Labor Management --> Technician --> Organization

Actual Result:

Applying the WCAG text spacing overrides (via bookmarklet or user stylesheet) causes text to be clipped inside fixed-height containers using overflow: hidden. After applying custom text spacing, the information on the "Organization" section is not completely visible, resulting in content truncation

Expected Result:

Text should remain fully visible when spacing overrides are applied, or a mechanism to reveal full text should be available.

How to fix:

Use containers that grow dynamically with content. Replace fixed height with min-height. Avoid overflow: hidden on text containers; use overflow: visible or auto instead.
