react-native-rich-editor: 1.7.0 to 1.8.3 breaks scrolling and selection

I’m not sure what changed between 1.7.0 and 1.8.3, but rendering the editor with both useContainer={true} or useContainer={false} no can scroll up-down when rendered inside a <View>.

Additionally, something also changed with spacing and the text selection thumb is not visible when the last line is selected (it ends up hidden below the actual web view).

Any ideas of what changed and how I can resolve the above?

i use the control with out scrollView and set use useContainer={false} and is Ok for me. “react-native-pell-rich-editor”: “^1.8.5” Windows app with react native.

 <RichTextEditor
        disabled={false}
        editorStyle={contentStyle} // default light style
        ref={richText}
        style={styles.rich}
        useContainer={false}
        initialHeight={height}
        placeholder={'please input content'}
        pasteAsPlainText={true}
        scrollEnabled={false}
      />
