Because I stupidly forgot to repeat the original problem I had, and my
code doesn't show it (and doesn't show the correct use of the function I
wrote). The code shows that I now know how to compute the number of
lines and item will have; in the actual program I am developing I will
take the max of these numbers and make all items that height.
This means the code I should have shown is as follows (here I first
compute the maximum height needed for any item, and then show all items
using this height). Also in the actual program there will be scrolling
options to change the item shown by the different labels.
