I'm using the whole thing under KDE only, and I don't know why it wraps 
the texts (though I don't mind it doing so :-) ). Is there a property to 
switch this on or off?

Here is an idea for the developers (bonjour Benoit...) which came to me 
the other day:

IF there is any value about word-wrap that can be read from the original 
C++ GridView from the libraries, it might suffice to give just an 
integer about the number of text lines in a grid line. If it's > 1, the 
program could decide whether to stretch this line's height to make the 
whole text visible. A single line's height can be read easily anyway.

If the programmer doesn't want to decide for each line, there could be a 
property as well to be set with TRUE to make the GridView care for it by 
itself.

Just my 2 cents...


Regards

Rolf
