Some iMessages (about half) both sent or received from my phone randomly show up in my Messages.app view truncated. These aren't long messages, and there's no set amount of glyphs they truncate after. It makes reliably using Message.app kind of useless as I can't be sure I am seeing the entire message.
SMS messages do not appear to be affected.
I've traced this down to actually a UI issue -- and it's kind of silly. The text bubbles seem to have a bug fitting text properly under certain sizings. I resized the detail pane and the full messages became visible.. I've also since noticed similar problems rendering pictures.
Big Sur 11.6 -- I've actually been running Big Sur for a while but this seems new to .6

Hello Paul Forgey,
We see that you're having some trouble with Messages in the Messages app not appearing correctly. We'd be happy to help!
Could you please confirm what device this is happening on and the exact OS version it's running?
Do you have any other Apple Devices? If so, are the messages appearing as expected on there?
Does this only seem to be happening with messages from specific contacts or does it seem completely random?
Cheers!
I should also point out I'm not running with any accessibility settings, nor have I changed the size of the fonts.
imessages from iphone shown in Messges.app are truncated
