Overview / Terminology

This page explains the LCL auto sizing algorithm. AutoSizing means here: Automatic resizing and repositioning of LCL controls.

Properties

The following properties defines the behavior of the LCL autosizing:

  • Current Left,Top,Width,Height,ClientWidth,ClientHeight
  • Loaded Left,Top,Width,Height,ClientWidth,ClientHeight
  • AutoSize
  • Anchors
  • AnchorSides
  • Align
  • BorderSpacing
