Bummer. I was afraid of this. I ended up making the installer window a little bit wider (width=400) and this seems to be a reasonable workaround in the absence of using a fixed-width font.

[WiX-users] Question about product keys (PIDTemplate) and length of text box
Hello, My license key generation software (based on how I'm seeding it) generates a 46 character -- that's 40 characters for key plus 6 characters for dashes -- license key. As part of the installation of my software I'd like people to enter the license key that they've been given. Unfortunately I can't find how WIX would allow me to format the *width* of each text box so that it fits my license key WITHOUT any extra characters. There's extra padding of 3-4 characters at the end of each text box and this means that in spite of my orientation of the product key entry on my installer, 1-2 of the text boxes for the last 10 characters of the product key will go off the screen. If I was able to format the width of each text box, I should be able to get around this extra padding and this would mean my product key entry would no longer go off the page. Does anyone here know of how I might be able to change the width of a text box in WIX for my product key? -- K -- Come build with us!
