# Resize the compose box
When composing a long message, it can be helpful to expand the compose
box to display more text and avoid distractions. Note that the compose
box also stretches automatically when you type a long message.
## Expand the compose box

1. Click on the **<i class="fa fa-chevron-up"></i> icon** in the top
right corner of the compose box.
{end_tabs}
## Collapse the compose box
{start_tabs}
1. With the compose box in the expanded state, click on the **<i class="fa
fa-chevron-down"></i> icon** in the top right corner of the compose box.
{end_tabs}
## Stretch the compose box
