Whenever I enable the autosize mode on my components, the label text dissapears

 final CheckBox checkBox = new CheckBox();
 checkBox.setText(text);
 //checkBox.setAutoSizeMode(true);
 m_content.add(m_textModeLayout.createConstraint(), checkBox);

 final PickerComponent pickerComponent = PickerComponent.createStrings(opciones);
 final Label labelForComponent = pickerComponent.getEditor().getLabelForComponent();
 labelForComponent.setText(text);
 //labelForComponent.setAutoSizeMode(true);
 pickerComponent.onTopMode(true);

 final TextComponent textComponent = new TextComponent();
 final Label labelForComponent = textComponent.getEditor().getLabelForComponent();
 textComponent.labelAndHint(text);
 labelForComponent.setText(text);
 //labelForComponent.setAutoSizeMode(true);
 textComponent.onTopMode(true);

The problem I´m facing is that some of the texts are really big and I need a way for those to be displayed.

Thanks!

  In case you wonder, here is my form init... m_textModeLayout = new TextModeLayout(8, 1); m_content = new Container(); m_content.setLayout(m_textModeLayout); m_content.setScrollableY(true); m_content.add(m_textModeLayout.createConstraint(), new SpanLabel("Instruction")); add(CENTER, m_content);

Autosize mode won't work here due to the unique layout constraint which prevents us from knowing the available size beforehand. It will only work in a deterministic layout.

I would suggest rethinking your design and using a SpanLabel below the text component to represent the additional details. That way the text won't shrink "too much".

An alternative would be setting the label size of the text to a specific smaller size but that might make the text unreadable to some users and make things worse as a result.

  Spanlabel did the trick... I guess this TextComponent and PickerComponent classes are designed with only short texts in mind. Thank you so much!
