Unhappy Driver Station User Messages Extend Length

I have been expirimenting with sending messages to the User Messages box in the Driver Station, but it seems that there is a length limit. After about 15 characters, it will cut a bit of the 16th off, and not print any more. Is there a way to fix this? This is in the middle of the box, not the end so it is strange.

Re: Driver Station User Messages Extend Length

It should support 21 characters. It might help if you posted the code you are using.
