Flow Expression Builder is unfindable

My Laptop screen resolution is 1600x900 and set the "Change the size..." drop down to 125%.

When it is this size, in Flow the Expression editor tab does NOT display. The Dynamic Content will show, but not the Expression tab.

After I change from 125% to 100%, then the Expressions tab will display. What intern believes that this level of Responsive Design is brilliant? They need to be hung by their thumbs on the public square.

That said, is there ANY OTHER WAY to get to the Expression tab without have to change my resolution or percentage?

    You can enable the Experimental Features via Settings > View all Power Automate settings > switch Experimental Features to On.
    It introduces a new User Interface while building the flow and displays both Dynamic Value dropdown menu and Expression Builder on the center of the form, so that it does not hide automatically with the screen resolution adjusting.

    Please note that this is a new feature in testing and might be unstable or go through significant changes. Consider twice if you are in a production environment.

    Although this does alleviate the Responsive Design problem, another intern has decided to only display "Custom Value" in an text box where a Dynamic / Expression has been used. Thus, at a glance, one cannot see what has been selected, and must go two clicks in to find it.

    WHY MICROSOFT, WHY? Why do you hate your users?! Why do you not strive for a useful and friendly end-user experience??!
