TitleAreaDialog Message Not Wrapping [message #440437]

I have created a number of dialogs using TitleAreaDialog as the base.
These are working well with one exception. Some of the dialogs wrap
the text correctly that was set using setMessage. Some of the dialogs
do NOT wrape and cause the dialog width to be extended so that the
text of the setMessage can be displayed as one long line.

My next step is to trace through the TitleAreaDialog class to see if I
can determine what is happening but I thought I would ask if anyone
has seen this same problem?

Yes, I got it too.
It seems that if you don't give a withHint to the Window (main composite
LayoutData), the general behaviour is to grow the window length.
Hint: use "\n" in your messsages.

Thanks. I'll give that a try. Don't know why I didn't think to use \n
in my message since that's exactly what I would have done in a Windows
MFC application.

Thanks, again.
