There is no published property "AutoSize" for TForm, but I can set

   MyForm.AutoSize.Height := true;

at runtime.

Doing the form resizes to 0.

I guess the autosize functionality hasn't been completed yet, has it?
Would be great to have it though!

Thanks Uli

Is there anything on the form ?  If so, then that is why it's "empty" in terms of auto-sizing.

I'm not entirely sure why I didn't enabled auto-sizing for the forms, but I'm pretty sure that it has to do with the scrollbar usage and the fact that I didn't test it completely with the scrollbars yet.

Yes, sure. I put a TBasicPanel on it with Layout.Position = lpTopLeft
and Layout.Consumption = lcBottom.

OK, I see. As I said: that would be a big timesaver and save a lot of
nested calculations.

Yeah, that's why it never happened - the form control interfaces have to change a bit to accommodate the nested auto-sizing, and those changes haven't been made yet.  I'll see if I can get to them in 2.07 (they'll be a breaking change, of course).
