Fixed on Beta: Messages: Attachment button overlaps written text and scrollbar [44802]

Reproduction Steps:
1.) open the window for writing a new message (e.g. from message center, or from "message" button in any of the context menus for players)
2.) write enough text to fill the text box

Observed: the Attachment button partly overlaps the text (the last word here should be "Guild"):

3.) write even more text

Observed: The Attachment button partly overlaps the scroll bar

Expected: The button should be placed in a way that it doesn't overlap anything. If placed in the textbox, the text should be wrapped around the button.

Suggestion: Place the Attachment button a the bottom beneath the send button.

Issue Description (10/10): See above - the Attachment button overlaps written text and the scrollbar.

I have performed a quicksearch of the forums using a select few keywords relating to my bug to see if it has already been reported: yes, nothing found

On the app, the attachment button is translucent while typing, so it isn't too bad, though makes reading the message a little difficult:IMG_1228.jpg

Then, when stopped typing, the button becomes solid and overlays the text, preventing checking the full text before sending:IMG_1229.jpg

iOS, up-to-date;
app, latest (1.111.0?);
hardware, iPad Pro.

Suggestion: Place the Attachment button at the bottom beneath the send button.
I don't think beneath the Send makes sense: actions should occur in order on screen if at all possible (yes, this forum software also slightly breaks that well-established i/o principle). The Attachment button could go above the Send button or on the far left of the two buttons.

On the app, it might make sense to keep the button outside of the edit box, too, inbetween the edit box and the send button (I'm not sure how that works for those with very limited screen space such a phone). The Send button could be made at least 30% smaller (i.e., a square or portrait rectangle).
