[Lazarus] QuestionDLG. Width of window

I use QuestionDLG quite a lot and to avoid extreme window widths
for long texts I split all text (mainly file and path names) into lines
of max 80 characters. This works fine up to Windows 7.

But since I use Windows 8.1 the OS inserts its own linebreaks much earlier
(don't know exactly but could be around 50 characters).
After reading this:

I don't know what to do.
I would like to continue using QuestionDLG but it seems that
I have no control over the width of the window.
Any sugggestions?
