Option 'other' in radiobuttons

Hi,

I've a question (again). This time, it concerns the use of /other in radiobuttons.
Below is the (example) piece of code (of Inquisit itself) that makes use of it:

<radiobuttons ratingquestion>
/ caption = "What is your favorite flavor of ice cream?"
/ options = ("chocolate", "vanilla", "mint chip", "chunk monkey", "pistaccio")
/ other = "other flavor"
</radiobuttons>

The problem that I have here, is that the textbox (when 'other' is selected) does not clearly show up. It's still partially covered up by a white space. Although a majority of the textbox does show up for the current example, this is not the case for some of the questions that I have in a questionnaire. As such, I was wondering if there's any way to remove the white space/to fully show the textbox.

The only thing you can do, IIRC, is pushing the other textbox further to the right using tabs (or the like) such that there is no overlap between the white bounding rectangle around the regular response options and the textbox:
