Is it possible to limit text input in a field based upon its height?

[Robert Presender]

Hi,

If the field height is divided by the textHeight, the result is the 
number of lines.
You can then limit the number of lines.
See textHeight and keyDown in the docs.  Don't know if the spacebar can 
be used with keyDown.

Regards ... Bob
