Control page truncates device state as text output

Hi all, I am just starting to tinker with control pages. When I add the iTunes device states to my control panel, often the values for the current album or song are long and the display page cuts the text display off. I can't seem to find a way to make the text field longer, or turn on some sort of auto sizing to ensure the entire value is displayed.

In the attached image you can see what I am talking about. The album name should be "flat as a pancake" and the track title should be "Never been any reason" you can see both are cut off by the UI.
Any ideas?

-Eric

On the bottom right of the variable text field there is a drag handle for want of a better word - click and stretch the text box out from there - looks like a capital I on its side - I'm sure someone will let us know what its called....

Perfect, that is exactly what I was looking for, not sure why I missed it before :)

Thanks!
