Configure Alfresco.util.PopupManagers YUI Dialog

I'm trying to configure the width for Alfresco.util.PopupManager.displayPrompt() but I don't see how to do it.

YUI Dialog has a width property, but the only config that I've managed to see, defaultDisplayPromptConfig object, doesn't seem to pay much attention to my messing with it.

Specifically, I tried setting Alfresco.util.PopupManager.defaultDisplayPromptConfig.width but it didn't work :)

I'm also trying to style up the panel I'm loading (create-site style injected panel), but it does not work for now.

Is there a way to configure the PopupManager Prompt object?

TIA

If you look at the source for Alfresco.util.PopupManager.displayPrompt() contained in alfresco.js then you'll see that the method creates an instance of YAHOO.widget.SimpleDialog, which does support a width property.

The problem is that displayPrompt() takes only specific configuration options which it passes through to the SimpleDialog, so adding an additional width parameter to your config will not have any effect, as you can see.

// Create the SimpleDialog that will display the text
var prompt = new YAHOO.widget.SimpleDialog("prompt",
      {
         close: c.close,
         constraintoviewport: c.constraintoviewport,
         draggable: c.draggable,
         effect: c.effect,
         modal: c.modal,
         visible: c.visible,
         zIndex: this.zIndex++
      });

// Show the title if it exists
if (c.title)
{
   prompt.setHeader($html(c.title));
}

// Show the prompt text
prompt.setBody(c.noEscape ? c.text : $html(c.text));

// Show the icon if it exists
if (c.icon)
{
   prompt.cfg.setProperty("icon", c.icon);
}

// Add the buttons to the dialog
if (c.buttons)
{
   prompt.cfg.queueProperty("buttons", c.buttons);
}

// Add the dialog to the dom, center it and show it.
prompt.render(parent);
prompt.center();
prompt.show();

I like the idea of enhancing the function to support a width property and possibly others, but in the meantime you are best off using SimpleDialog directly in your own code, modifying the above to add a width parameter.
