How can I expand the visible size of the text message I'm typing i

[AC Question]

If I send a wordy text, only the last 4 lines of text are visible while I'm typing. I'd rather see what I'm typing than the older texts bubbles above it
Can I reformat that?

Hi, welcome to the forums! Which phone and texting app are you using? There's not such an option in most stock messaging apps. When I write long texts I prefer using an editor of a note taking app and copy & paste when finished. Easier and safer. Also you could check some third party apps in the Play Store

I have a Galaxy S6, and Verizon Messages app. I recently upgraded from an S4, and did not have this problem on the old version.
