# 3849 Auto-Sizing of Right-Aligned Labels and Links Not Updating Control Width Properly

---

Take a TLabel, call it lblAlign, put it on a form with a timer and a button.

Add the following code to the timer.

The right edge of the label is aligned to the right edge of the button.

Now change the label's alignment to taRightJustify and run it again. The label is all over the place, and certainly not aligned.

Not sure what is happening here, but suffice to say the workaround is simply to align it left.
