Description Markus Knauer CLA 2014-05-13 10:15:31 EDT 
If you have a (small) Text widget and you set a (long) hint via Text.setMessage(String), the hint is automatically wrapped according to the width of the text widget and takes more space vertically than available. I'll attach a screenshot from our demo that illustrates this behaviour: The text flows vertically out of the widget.

This can be reproduced with our controls demo (RAP 2.2 and RAP 2.3M7) at http://rap.eclipsesource.com/demo/release/controlsdemo/controls#Text

- enable "border" flag
- delete pre-filled text from text widget
- set a very long message
