Question

How do I disable a GWT RichTextArea widget not to do “drag-resizing”? I just want to be set to a specific width but not removing its multi-line function.

I’ve tried setSize() but still it can be resized when dragged at the bottom-right part of it.

Any ideas?

Try to set max/min height and width:

 widget.getElement().getStyle().setProperty("maxWidth","200px");
 widget.getElement().getStyle().setProperty("maxHeight","200px");

Or simply you can do it with CSS 3, there is resize property but it will be problem with older version of the browsers.
