Description Ivan Furnadjiev CLA 2008-11-04 03:09:54 EST
The padding for the MULTI Text is hard coded in the AppearanceBase ("text-area" section). This is done because of the qooxdoo bug http://bugzilla.qooxdoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=551. Once the bug is fixed, enable padding definition from CSS.

The qooxdoo bug has been closed as wontfix, and we are not updating the client from qooxdoo anymore anyhow. What now?

How about reimplementing the text widget to exactly fit the needs of RWT (if time permits)?
Maybe some other bugs that are related to the text widget could also be addressed: bug 292880, bug 329348
Plus, TextUtil.js with all its hacks to work around limitations and bugs of the current widget would become obsolete.
Comment 3 Sebastien Arod CLA 2014-12-29 04:49:30 EST
This limitation prevents us from aligning neatly multiline Texts and single line Texts and makes our forms using multiline text ugly. 

Is there a known workaround for this limitation?
Comment 4 Ivan Furnadjiev CLA 2015-04-09 03:57:55 EDT
The multi text widget needs complete reimplementation (not based on HTML input element) in order to control scrollbars style and position and enable padding. Unfortunately, not planned for 3.0 release.
