Growl bubble size

How do I change the size of the notification bubbles? It seems that I only have two choices, 'normal' and 'small'. The problem is that when I use the growldict, it cuts off the definition because the bubble isn't big enough. Can this be changed?

There is a checkbox for "limit 2-5 lines" in bubble prefs. You can uncheck that and get the full dictionary lookup

I came here to ask about this. For the most part, all is working well with Growl (and Gmail+Growl Utility) on my new MacBook Pro.

But no matter what bubble style I select, set it to large, and uncheck that "limit to 2-5 lines" setting, it stays the same (small) size. Mail notifications are close to useless because they are so small.

Any other ideas? Should I trash prefs or something?

P.S. I also discovered that the "Bezel" style doesn't support click-through. If I choose that style and click a notification (ostensibly, to go to the email, as my Gmail+Growl Utility prefs are set that way) then nothing happens. Seems to work fine with all the other styles though... clicking the notification takes me right to Gmail.

Ah, I just learned that this is probably limited by the amount of characters Gmail is actually sending out to Gmail Notifier. Not much Growl can do about that, I suppose.

BUT, I still see that toggle the SIZE setting (between "Normal" and "Large") has no effect, the appearance is the same.

Click through isn't allowed on both music video and bezel.
