Adjusting size of language select drop down box.

I have implemented languages into my install. I have added the drop down box for language selection before my install, but it's so small that translated text gets cut off. This happens on nearly all my languages.
How do I adjust the size of that box so that any translated text will fit?

You might need to implement a custom language selector dialog -- this is a known problem with the current default dialog I'm afraid.

So if I were to make a custom Dialog for the purpose of language selection, which variables or fields must that drop down box set in order to tell the installer which language has been chosen?
Do you have an example or could you provide one please?

Most of the information needed to construct a custom language selector can be found on the forums -- however, start off by reading this one
http://www.installaware.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4805.
That gives you the variables to work with.
As far as I know there is no variable that lists the available localisations.

Is there a solution regarding adjusting the size of dialog or text?

Dear User,
the solution is the one defined before, you should create your own Language selector dialog.
