TdxDBGridController and OnDrawColumnTitle override on multi-line

I found TdxDBGridController to be very useful designing DBGrids with a
nice layout and good search functionality.

On a normal DBGrid without an attached grid controller and property
dbGrid.Columns.Title.MultiLine := True
   dbGrid.Columns[2].Title.Caption := 'Test1' + LineEnding + 'Test2' ;
shows the Title on two lines as expected.

However when using the TdxDBGridController this is ignored.

Is there another way to get multi line titles while using
TdxDBGridController ?

I found this component too very intersting and - from demo - sounds
like powerfull.
But I cannot understand how to use a mini tutorial stepbystep "how to
start in an empty project" will be usefull (or in alternative just a
mini project with 1 form, 1 grid and this component linked at) !

anyone has ideas about ?

(rxdbgrid does a nice incremental search.....)
