Formulas questions: can't resize variable editing area

Recently I have come across a slight problem when editing Formulas questions.

I can't resize the random and global variable text area fields anymore.

random and global variable settings

Most likely this is due to an uncaught error in formatcheck.js.

Before I do some further investigation, has somebody come across the same problem?

As far as I can tell, the last versions of Moodle or the Formulas plugin didn't have this problem.

Hello Matthias,

Version "4.91 for Moodle 3.0 to 3.9" of the Formulas question type was released on June 19. This was a minimum update that did not contain any changes that could affect the resizing of input fields.

Thanks for your reply.

I investigated further and the problem is definitely not related to the Formulas plugin. In fact, in my installation all editable areas can't be extended anymore.

In the meantime, I have found the responsible plugin. See here: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=410793#p1656875 .

It does resize on my MacBook Pro. Maybe it is due to the fact that my school is using an old version of Moodle, I don't really know. I first thought you had to click on it ... which doesn't do anything. But you can actually grab it and slide it down to resize it.
