A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
As of JavaFX 13, a Dialog is only tall enough to display a single line of content text. If the content text contains one or more newline characters, the content area is still tall enough to accommodate only the first line of text, followed by an ellipsis.

In JavaFX 12, Dialogs properly accommodated multi-line text.


REGRESSION : Last worked in version 12.0.2

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Create a Dialog, and call its setContentText method with an argument that contains at least one newline character. Then show the Dialog.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The Dialog should be tall enough to show all lines of the content text. In JavaFX 12, this was the case.
ACTUAL -
In JavaFX 13, the Dialog only shows the first line of content text, followed by an ellipsis.

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Obtain the parent Window from the DialogPane's Scene, and size it manually.
