The Metadata panel has some glitches in LR 10 / Mac OS 10.15.5 with the new fonts:

 

 
And some fields don't display their last line (off by one error?):
 
To reproduce this, try changing the width of the panel.
 
 
About the fonts in LR 10, the Lightroom Queen wrote: "[T]he font has been updated throughout the app, to use Adobe’s newly standards. While many formatting issues have already been identified and fixed, you might still find a few odd gremlins or spacing issues."
 
 
Here's another example, with a custom metadata tagset:
 
Here's the definition of that tagset:
return {title = "Any Vision",id = 'anyvision',items = {
     {"com.johnrellis.anyvision.labels", height_in_lines = -1},{"com.johnrellis.anyvision.landmarks", height_in_lines = -1},{"com.johnrellis.anyvision.locations", height_in_lines = -1},{"com.johnrellis.anyvision.map"},{"com.johnrellis.anyvision.logos", height_in_lines = -1},{"com.johnrellis.anyvision.faces", height_in_lines = -1},{"com.johnrellis.anyvision.text", height_in_lines = -1},{"com.johnrellis.anyvision.safeSearch", height_in_lines = -1},"com.johnrellis.anyvision.dominantColor","com.adobe.separator",{"com.adobe.caption", height_in_lines = -1},"com.adobe.GPS"}}

Hi Rob,

Is it still reproducible with Lightroom Classic 7.5?

Thanks for the reply, Ruby. It’s a consistent error. It occurs in all editable fields except for the keyword field.

Hi Robtmann ,

Thanks for reporting this issue. are you seeing it consistently or it is intermittent?

In the Library module, all editable metadata fields with more than one line of text display truncated text unless I select the field. I've attached two screen grabs, one shows the unselected state and the other the selected state. When unselected, the bottom line of text is missing.
