When I use ShowMessage then often long file names (or other text) require to break them into lines. I use a function for this. But since Windows 8 (or maybe other versions of Windows too) the size of the WidgetSet-Window is of fixed size (instead of that it widens to the longest line in the window as it was before). This is a completely nonsense-change! Who is doing all these bullshit API changes at MS? I don't get it.
Today I stumbled about this web page http://zarko-gajic.iz.hr/displaying-long-non-breakable-text-file-path-in-messagedlg-truncationellipsis-issues/ where the author complains in the same way about this issue but offers a workarounds (but only for Delphi). My question: Is this workaround (usage of old style message windows) available in Lazarus too? If yes, how? If no, can it be added? -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
