TRootHelpDialog: wrap text

ROOT
1

Hi there,

Is it possible to set TRootHelpDialog to wrap text automaticily when it pops up?

Also, is it possible to color text in the TRootHelpDialog (ideally with different colors)?

If not, what would be a good alternative to TRootHelpDialog?

Thanks!

See for example the $(ROOTSYS)/tutorial/gui/calendar.C tutorial.
You can also see it in action with the online help you obtain when you click on the question mark on the right side of any context menu entry (e.g. in a TCanvas)

Cheers, Bertrand.
