String feedback fields in annotation queues are single-line

[mmabrouk]

String feedbacks in annotation queues are shown as single-line inputs instead of text areas. This makes the flow hard to use when entering longer values such as the correct_answer ground truth for a Q&A chatbot.

The root cause is in transforms.ts — when a feedback field has type "string", it's hardcoded to render as SimpleInputWithLabel [1]:

if (type === "string") {
    metadataItem.as = "SimpleInputWithLabel"
}

This flows through the renderMap.string handler in helpers.tsx [2], which checks as?.includes("SimpleInput") and renders the SimpleInput component [3] — a single-line Ant Design Input.

A fix could involve either:

1. Adding a new as value (e.g., "TextAreaWithLabel") for string fields that exceed a certain length or are explicitly configured for multi-line input, or
2. Changing the default for string feedback fields in annotation queues to use a TextArea component instead of Input.
