    Try changing the textbox to an HTML textbox:

    2020-01-07 13_35_54-SQLQuery54.sql - ubpos02_liberty.INVENTORYSCAN (OWENSGROUP_elott (146))_ - Micro.png

     

    If there's just a certain portion of the string you want to display, please post a sample of the entire string so we can work with that.

    Have you tried using the HTML to Text action in Flow to convert the Response Comments dynamic content to plain text before sending it back to Power Apps?  Otherwise I agree with @Anonymous, just use an html control instead of a Text box.

    In your gallery, remove the textbox and add the HTML text control (as seen in my screenshot above), then add the appropriate Parent reference from the previous control.
