Is there a way to constrain the size of a text box?

I have an unlimited character in a text entry form, but in the repeater display, I only want a few characters of the full input to show. So i’m needing to truncate the full text in the display, and then the full read out will display in the subsequent dynamic page in full.

As is now, the full text entry dynamically expands the text box to display the full text in the repeater. But I want that repeater display truncated in it’s display. Any advice?

PS - I tried setting a value to the text box width and height, in the right-hand toolbar menu box, hoping that would define a hard coded size to the highlighted text box, but it did not constrain to the size I set. The text overrun still dynamically expands the text box, overriding the values I entered as the text box sizing constraint, that I hoped to enforce.
