Brief summary
The default size of the dialog box created by
ui.browseableMessageis too small.To be precise, it seems that
wx.html2.WebViewdoes not expand its best size based on the content.The current total size of the dialog box is less than 200x200 pixels, and the WebView is even smaller, making it almost impossible to display any content. (Although scrollbars are present, this size is practically useless.)
Steps to reproduce
Displays a browsable message, for example, by pressing
NVDA+xtwice.Actual behavior
The message dialog box is very small.
Expected behavior
Display the browsable message dialog in an appropriate size.
