"Multiple lines of text" not wrapping in field

Hi Everyone!

I created a field with the properties of "Multiple lines of text" - 6 lines actually. When a user fills out a form and enters information into the 6 line text box, the line scrolls to the right instead of wrapping to the next line. Also, when reviewing the form after submission, the "Multiple lines of text" box only shows one line and you cannot see beyond the right border of the box. To scroll to the right, you have to actually enter the edit mode. 

I'm guessing I did something wrong because I cannot imagine this would be designed to behave this way.

I'm using SharePoint O365. Here's a snippet of the properties:

Thanks, Kevin

    Hi Kevin,

    Thanks for your detailed updates.

    We need to engage the related team to further assist you on the issue on Chrome (or other browser). Therefore, we need your tenant information for escalating the issue. Please provide us with the required information via private message.  

    Currently, as we confirmed in the private message, you may use IE 11 as workaround for text wrapping.

    Regards,

    Ryan
