You can use the optional EDIT_TEXTITEM parameters to specify the location and dimensions of the pop-up window with which the item editor is associated. If you do not use these parameters, Oracle Forms invokes the item editor with its default location and dimensions.
The Width must be at least wide enough to display the buttons at the bottom of the editor window.
