[EEFT] How to constrain forms? [message #514622]

For the generated editors, both within editors and property sheets, the contained widgets are not always being packed to fit the available space. But it's especially odd, because there isn't any pattern. Even for the same element types, some of them are packed and others aren't? Ideas about what might be happening here?

thanks,

-Miles

I figured out what the issue is. It seems that a Text Area or Text box reports it's preferred size as the space need to display the largest non-CR space.. Even with H_SCROLL and MULTI?!

Annoying, and also not an EFF issue, at least I don't think it is..
