AFAIK in Lazarus dialogs is often used component TButtonPanel (Misc palette)
with OK, Cancel, Close and Help buttons. These buttons are autosized with
Constraints.MinWidth:=DefButtonSize.cx; (this value is taken from Themes:
DefButtonSize := ThemeServices.GetDetailSize(Details); it is 75 on Qt).

It looks like a button that has been autosized; I must admit my feeling
is that autosized buttons should have a minimum width, something like
the width of a "Cancel" button, say. The general GUI convention seems to
be to have all buttons of similar sizes, and the lazarus autosize
algorithm produces buttons that can often look on the small side
compared to most programs. Turning off autosizing is a bad idea because
of the variety of system fonts.
