Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Misaligned Arrow Icons in Trip Summary

What is the root cause of that problem?

Arrow icon not centered.
The icon may look vertically misaligned but it is not, it is only horizontally misaligned.

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

Add additional styles here to horizontally center the arrow.

    additionalStyles={styles.alignSelfCenter}

App/src/components/ReportActionItem/TripDetailsView.tsx

Line 90 in 6836b67

<Icon

What specific scenarios should we cover in automated tests to prevent reintroducing this issue in the future?

NA

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

⚠️ @ChavdaSachin Thanks for your proposal. Please update it to follow the proposal template, as proposals are only reviewed if they follow that format (note the mandatory sections).

cc @Expensify/design - kinda looks like we have set this to always be a certain distance away from the destination station, but perhaps we should have it equidistant between the departure and destination stations?

Not 100% sure where we set this - perhaps in https://github.com/Expensify/Expensify/issues/390709?

[dannymcclain]

Yeah I kinda feel like each location (start and stop) should have equal width and the arrow should sit perfectly in between them. That way the arrows should always line up down the center. Does that make sense?
