Steps to reproduce

Android 12 works fine.
However, this phenomenon occurs from Android 13.

The height doesn't cut when the line is changed.

If you enter special characters or certain languages on a single line, the height is cut off.

For example, special characters are cut off in height using ༒ or ༺.

I tried to fix the height with text onlayout, but it didn't work out.

Snack, code example, screenshot, or link to a repository

import React, { memo } from "react"
import { Text, View } from "react-native"

const AppContainer = memo(() => {
    return (
        <View style={{ flex: 1, justifyContent: "center" }}>
            <Text>ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</Text>
            <Text>{"\n"}</Text>
            <Text>かお 얼굴 さる 원숭이 たこ</Text>
            <Text>{"\n"}</Text>
            <Text>かお 얼굴 さる 원숭이 たこ༒</Text>
            <Text>{"\n"}</Text>
            <Text>かお 얼굴 さる 원숭이 たこ༺</Text>
            <Text>{"\n"}</Text>
            <Text>かお 얼굴 さる 원숭이 たこかお 얼굴 さる 원숭이 たこ かお 얼굴 ༒</Text>
        </View>
    )
})

export default AppContainer

@im-minsung Please provide your device info. If its emulator then what kind of emulator. There has been duplicate issue in case it is one such as this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54750503/text-is-getting-cut-off-in-android-for-react-native

༺ Thank you for apply!! I'll check your url right now ༻

I tested only with several Samsung devices.
It happens when it is Android 13 version on Samsung devices.
The writing is not cut off in version 12.

That the Layout instance is different between yoga and native may be responsible for such a problem. I've researched serveral cases and found that the width from BoringMetrics may cause that TextView makes a new Layout instance.
However, the new Layout instance has some differences from that in yoga. So, unify the measure method maybe a solution. I am still verifying that.

I've been searching for a few days. Unlike other words, if a special word is included, the height does not seem to be as high as the descender value of the onTextLayout value in that word. Is this part related to padding top you modified?

I'm trying to find a solution in native, namely YogaMeasureFunction. As you mentioned above, the onTextLayout has something wrong. The callback is releated Layout instance in YogaMeasureFunction. And that callback also has something abnormal when the text is RTL string like arabic.

By the way, in your case, is it normal in native view on Android 13?

I've tested on native, and the words are cut equally...

I will try to solve it using padding and line height. If the line of text exceeds 2 lines, I will delete the style and apply it only when it is 1 line.
This method is not perfect, but I don't have time

If i succeed, I'll comment the code.

Equally on native TextVew ? So weird! I've tested your demo on Pixel5 Android13, no any problems.

Expect your reply~

I checked and found that if you use 'wrapcontent' in native, it won't cut. So I tried to find an option similar to 'wrapcontent' on RN but it was hard to find :(

Anyway, below is the code I worked on.

When I looked for a value similar to the previous one, I found 1.38.

I replaced the existing < text /> with the following components.

If you find a better way, I would appreciate it if you could reply :)

export default memo(({ style, numberOfLines, children }: IProps): React.ReactElement => {
    const fontSize = style?.fontSize ? style?.fontSize : 14
    const [lines, setLines] = useState(0)

    const onTextLayout = useCallback(
        ({
            nativeEvent: {
                lines: { length }
            }
        }: {
            nativeEvent: any
        }) => {
            setLines(length)
        },
        []
    )

    const customTextStyle = useCallback(() => {
        if (Platform.OS === "ios") return
        if (lines === 1) {
            return { lineHeight: fontSize * 1.38, paddingTop: fontSize - fontSize * 1.38 }
        }
    }, [])

    return (
        <Text style={[style, { alignSelf: "flex-start", ...customTextStyle() }]} onTextLayout={onTextLayout} numberOfLines={numberOfLines}>
            {children}
        </Text>
    )
})

I've created a PR for fixing such text cutoff phenomenon #37271. I've tested on many devices including some Android 13 devices. But I do not get any Samsung device.
Would you like to have a test for this problem? It will be very nice if you have a try and let me know the result.

Remember to try it in non-Fabric mode! @im-minsung

I have a Samsung S22 (Android 13) mobile phone and a Samsung A51 (Android 12) mobile phone. The fonts on the S22 mobile phone are intercepted, but the fonts on the A51 mobile phone are not intercepted. So I think this problem is likely to only appear on Android 13 Samsung phones. Try setting fontfamily:“ ” or fontWeight:'normal', the problem of characters being intercepted is gone
