Hi,
thank you for the report, we can reproduce this:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=428397
A work-Around would be to regsiter your own control:
http://eclipsesource.com/blogs/tutorials/how-to-customize-emf-forms/#customizecontrols
However, it would be great to receive a contribution for this BR, too.
Best Regards
Jonas

Thanks,
I will have a look into finding the problem,I suspect its to do with settings such as SWT.SINGLE and/or similar on the Text widgets
I have the source code from git for branch release_1.20
It is fairly clear how to compile it and run the code for the RCP version, I have few questions about working with the source code for RAP,
1.)For RAP should I compile against the ECP_RAP target? This is currently pointing to EMFStore 1.0 and not 1.1, and doesn't allow everything to compile, but maybe it allows enough o compile to run ECP on RAP?)
2.)Should I launch with the rap2 run configuration from git, is this kept up to date?
3.) Should the 1.2 branch always compile and run fro RAP, or is it sometimes less stable
4.) is there a way get the state of the code as it was released for RC1, RC2 etc.
Thanks,
Neil

Hi,
Before I can answer your questions: which branch have you checked out?
on master you always find the latest release (1.1.1) on develop you will
find the latest state. The sources of the RC for 1.2.0 can be found in
this branch: release_1.2.0
Best regards
Jonas

I havent tested this on RAP yet btw.
Multiline I found I can set in my .genmodel file.
It appears that the change is indeed only needed in getTextWidgetLayoutData()
It looks like this change would mean that the text area never gets less width than 200, which is ok for me, dont know about other users, something like 50 might be better.
Regards,
Neil
