TWinControl.DoAutoSize

Shrinks or enlarges the control to accommodate its children.

Declaration

Source position: controls.pp line 2189

Description

Because this method is frequently overridden, the LCL calls the TControl.AdjustSize method instead; it checks whether DoAutoSize really should be called right now.

DoAutoSize performs the following:

• Checks whether Autosize is permitted
• Checks for unaligned child components and aligns them as best it can
• Moves the constrained (aligned) child components to the correct position
• Adjusts the size of the client rectangle
• Adjusts the bounds of the whole control
