On some forms when I position myself with the focus on a field, the whole screen is compacted.  
I don’t understand why on some screens, however, it doesn’t happen.

Welcome to Thunkable.

When you click on a field to enter any value the keyboard comes up and takes space from the screen.

You have two options here:

- You either accept that components in the screen get squashed.
- Set the screen `scroll` option to **true** so that the screen makes space for the keyboard by scrolling the other components.

Thanks! 🙂

I preferred to set the Screen sroll flag to true…
