What I would like to do, when this occurs, is display a TextView widget
directly under the Entry widget and display each character entered so
that with the formatting facilities of the TextView the operator would
be able to view all the text. Once the text has been accepted, the
TextView would be deleted.
Sounds easy. Lay out your widgets on a VBox, with the Entry above the TextView. Set the textview's visibility to false. Connect signal to the Entry, so you can detect when it's text length is greater than 150 chars.
When it happens, copy the text to the textviews buffer and set the visibility to true. And it will apear "magicaly" under the Entry.
But this approach might not be intuitive for the user. You should try something like a button aside of the Entry which turns it into a TextView, or pops up a TextView dialog, or something like that.
Anyway, does this trick help?
