Liferay 6.1.1 how to programmatically set the width of an expando field?

I need to create expandos from a startup hook as described in this post. What's missing is how to set the width of the expando fields from the hook. Would anyone know how to accomplish this programmatically?

Do you mean the hints used for the input fields or the physical size constraint on the value stored in the DB?

Thanks for asking! I'm simply trying to resize the custom field's text box. By default, it's really big. Through the UI it can be resized using the 'height' and 'width' parameters. How can I adjust the width of the custom fields textbox using code. I couldn't find a setWidth() method that looked like it would work in this case. Any ideas?
