Nope, in my case (question: 242x242 image plus a couple of lines of text; answer: a few words) both windows are sized to fit perfectly. > Perhaps we can come up with a solution that addresses all concerns.

I don't know if it has enough information (e.g., the height of the screen) to be able to do this.
