So I thought about a multiline label with fixed width and text that can exceed in lines.
Like a long Terms and Conditions.

I don't think so.

In this case, probably the B4XPreferencesDialog with the Explanation field, would be the apropiate.

You might have a look at this thread: Best view (control) for showing a large text file.
The example project has a ScrollView with a Label..

Probably we need @CVR to explain better what he want to achieve.

I would have used xCLV.AddTextItem for this.
