Are you tracing getExplicitOrMeasuredHeight() and getExplicitOrMeasuredWidth? I wouldn't think looking at the text itself would be that useful. Instead of using a renderer that is "based on" Text, have you considered just _using_ Text and then using labelField to tell it what property to use? I have no idea if the engineers are feeding the labelField text into the Text's text or htmlText property in their implementation of IDropInListItemRenderer, but it's worth a shot. HTH; Amy
