As of v5.2, XXE makes inline-block and inline-table elements as narrow
as possible. Before this version, this was also the case but this was
not implemented as consistently as it is now.
Normally, the solution for this kind of problem is to add a CSS width
property (for now, supported only by tables and images) or a CSS
property "white-space:nowrap;" to the ``object'' which is too narrow.
Example 1 (not tested):
---
row(cell(
content(" Short Help: ",
text-field(attribute, "Longname",
columns, 32,
background-color, #E0FEFF)),
color, #0000FF,
width, 40em))
---
Example 2 (not tested):
---
row(cell(
content(" Short Help: ",
text-field(attribute, "Longname",
columns, 32,
background-color, #E0FEFF)),
color, #0000FF,
white-space, nowrap))
