Text Widget Width [message #465586]

I am trying to set the width of a text widget to a specific size (width =
20) using setSize. However, when I set the contents (setText) to lets say
"0" the width size returns back to 1. I have tried using setTextLimit as
well but as soon as I set the contents it shrinks back down. How can I
keep the width while defaulting the contents?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Are you using a layout? Do you have some example code showing the problem?
