I have seen something like this in my mobile resizing library and have not been able to put my finger on it. I think you're getting closer to nailing a recipe for this one.

I typed something into a field, then used the message box to get its formatted width. Then typed a shorter string of characters into the field, got the formattedwidth again, and it was the same as for the previous text value in the field. I haven't 100% verified yet, but it appears that if the new string is longer than the previous string, then the formatted width is reported correctly but if the new string is shorter than the old string, it is reported incorrectly. This is with LC 5.5.0. Anyone else seeing this?
