public virtual GoText CreateText(String s, int idx) {
  GoText t = new GoText();
  t.Selectable = false;
  t.Alignment = GoObject.Middle;
  t.Multiline = true;
  t.BackgroundOpaqueWhenSelected = true;
  t.BackgroundColor = Color.LightBlue;
  t.DragsNode = true;
  t.Text = s;
  t.Wrapping = true;
  if (this.ItemWidth > 0) {
    t.WrappingWidth = this.ItemWidth;
    t.Width = this.ItemWidth;
  }
  return t;
}
