You can nest a border layout in a table cell although I'm not sure what the
benefit would be but this is OK.
You lost me a bit with all the level of nesting all over the place, reading
the code I have no idea how it should look by now and since everything is
conveniently named "Multiline text" my brain is stack overflowing..
I suggest opening this in Component Inspector and looking at the sizes of
each component in the hierarchy. Where they were placed and why.
