Topic Box Text Width - Should be editable in Properties and/or Topic Box should be sizeable.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Enter a very long sentence / paragraph in a topic box
2. Notice that it's absurdly long - single line.
3. Hit F2 to edit the text box
4. You can now edit the text box boundary

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
An option to set the width of the Topic Box in Properties, OR the ability 
to resize the topic box in the GUI

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
3.0.3 (regular and Pro)
Vista / Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.
You should have a Preference setting to allow users to define a default 
maximum topic box width as well... ;-)

I agree that there should be a maximum topic width setting available. This is 
the
only thing that's keeping me from switching to XMind from FreeMind. I use 
FreeMind
every day to keep a work log, and usually end up with topics that are long
paragraphs. In XMind, I can't read-em.

I know that topics can be manually resized, but this is more trouble than it's 
worth.
Also, manually resizing topics leads to inconsistent sizes, while an automatic 
limit
would make everything match up.

I vote for a default maximum width. After that the topic should be 2 rows.

At present, you can drag the topic leftside to fix its width while you are 
editing a topic. Or, you can use "Ctrl+Enter" to change the line. It's handful.

It's been over 2 years since this feature request was submitted!

I'm running XMind 3.2.1 and there's still no way to easily set a maximum size 
value for all topics.

I know I can manually resize each topic individually, but when you have large 
maps with many topics this is completely impractical (would take so much time).

Please add this very simple and basic feature.
