 Hi!
 
 I have a dialog with lots of Text- components for user to input some
 values. This same dialog is used also for editing previously set data,
 i.e. same dialog is opened, and then Text.setText() is called for all
 components.
 
 When this dialog is opened for adding a new object, all Text components
 are already in pretty good size (= default size?). The problem is that
 when IŽm using this dialog for editing previously set data, all Text
 components are automagically resized to have exactly the width of the text
 that was set with setText() method! This is really annoying, because if I
 previously inserted just one character in to a Text component, now this
 componentŽs width is just one character. Naturally, when typing new text
 to this field, only one character can be seen at a time!
 
 How could I prevent the Text component from resizing in this stupid
 manner???

 Hi,
 
 This depends on the layout used. I use mostly FormLayout now and this
 one behaves in the correct manner - on all platforms.
