Hi.

Sorry, it is "dontWrap", not "donttWrap".

The field is not truncating, except visually. The text runs out the right side of the field's visible extent. Setting the "dontWrap" to false will force the field to wrap the text. You must remember that this is not the same as adding carriage returns in the necessary places.
