Alert Dialog with Multi-line Title

suggest change

The setCustomTitle() method of AlertDialog.Builder lets you specify an arbitrary view to be used for the dialog title. One common use for this method is to build an alert dialog that has a long title.

AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(context, Theme_Material_Light_Dialog);
builder.setCustomTitle(inflate(context, R.layout.my_dialog_title, null))
       .setView(inflate(context, R.layout.my_dialog, null))
       .setPositiveButton("OK", null);

Dialog dialog = builder.create();
dialog.show();

my_dialog_title.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent"
              android:padding="16dp">

    <TextView
        style="@android:style/TextAppearance.Small"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Curabitur
