I have tried inflating a view with the parent view set to 0 and setting the message text inside the inflated view and then calling setContentView() but got exactly the same result: the view is too small. Then I tried changing the layout as you suggest. For instance in the LinearLayout which had both layout_width and layout_height set to match_parent I tried setting them to some fixed pixel values with no result. Then I tried setting the text manually in the TextField XML element to some really long text and got a tall narrow window with no scrollbar and the bottom button stiff out of the window. I don't know if this theme was well tested but I need a popup window of some sort or else I will have to take over the whole screen with a regular Activity instead of a popup window of reduced width/height.
