GLADE_CATALOG_SEARCH_PATH="workdir/*/CustomTarget/extras/source/glade"
glade cui/uiconfig/ui/acorreplacepage.ui 

and look at the "general" page of origtext and newtext and change the
"width in chars"

(or just edit the xml directly with a text editor and search for 30 and
20)

Resizibility of the full dialog comes when all tabs are converted to new
widget layout. In this case in master only two of the five autocorrect
tabs are converted so the remaining three need to be converted over. The
"Word Completion" page looks the easiest to start with. You should be
able to get a long way by consulting the other examples in that cui
uiconfig dir and the wiki
