Hi Vasu,
That's the by default functionality of the description (rich_description) field. We can't increase the size of the same.
Suppose there are 1000/2000 words in the same then the form size will become lengthy & the user needs to scroll down to see other fields.
Regards,
Sunny Khandelwal

Any updates on this? We are having the same issue. The description field is so small, users have to expand it every time they view a case.

Hi @Vishnu_27 once the word text increases 2000 words then the scroll bar appears automatically, however the text box size cannot be increased manually.
Thank you.

I got an answer from now support on this.
For static resizing of the field:
About this task
HTML field height is configured per HTML field.
Procedure
- Navigate to a record with an HTML-type field that you want to change.
For example, select an incident, problem, or knowledge record. - Right-click the field label (for example, Article body) and select Configure Dictionary.
- In the Related Links section, select Advanced View.
- In the Attributes field, enter editor.height=X, where X is the desired height.
For example, editor.height=250
Note: HTML fields can range from 72 to 2000. HTML fields are by default 64.
For dynamic resizing of the field:
- Navigate to All > System Properties > All Properties
- In the search bar, enter glide.ui.html.editor.v5.enabled_plugins and select the property.
- In the value field, add autoresize. (single space then type in)
- Select Update.
The autoresize plugin is active. - Navigate to a record with an HTML-type field that you want to change. For example, select an incident, problem, or knowledge record.
- Right-click the field label (for example, Article body) and select Configure Dictionary.
- In the Related Links section, select Advanced View.
- In the Attributes field, enter editor.plugin=autoresize
