Can a TEXTAREA for plugin be provided?

Is there a way to change the default SIZE for a TEXTAREA component in a plugin?

The default size is rather small and while it can be manually enlarged, it would be nice to be able to set a different size (width x height).

Hi,

the size can't be controlled. Note that you can have a `codeMirrorDialect` field in your parameter definition in the json, to pass one of codemirror's language modes: this'll make the textarea a codemirror editor, whose size might be better for you.

Tried the codeMirrorDialect and while it does look like it woudl be something useful, since it provides nice syntax coloing etc., the view is a little "off" and was wondering if there are any ways to modify the look and feel...

I added this line to the paramter that is the textarea

...

"codeMirrorDialect":"text/x-sql"

...

But it now looks like the attachement...

Any ideas how to correct this?
