- I'm a little confused. What is the proper method of correctly sizing (and
- shaping) an alert/dialog box containing static text when you are going to
- be using one or more ^ parameters with ParamText? If I don't make the box
- big enough and provide a long name (or whatever), I don't get all of the
- message. If I make it plenty big enough, short messages look lost in the
- expanse of white-space. Are there any good ways of doing this dynamically?
