To resize the textedit, you need to redefine the size of each element of
it. See base.xml's definition of basetext. You can still inherit from
basetextedit, but you'll need to also define the background area, etc.
Example using your naming, resized to random size of 100x25:
<textedit name="year" from="basetextedit">
<area>0,0,100,25</area>
<statetype name="background">
<state name="active">
<imagetype name="background">
<area>0,0,100,25</area>
</imagetype>
</state>
<state name="selected">
<imagetype name="background">
<area>0,0,100,25</area>
</imagetype>
</state>
<state name="inactive">
<imagetype name="background">
<area>0,0,100,25</area>
</imagetype>
</state>
</statetype>
<imagetype name="cursor">
<filename>images/cursor.png</filename>
</imagetype>
<textarea name="text">
<area>3,5,94,22</area>
</textarea>
</textedit>
