I agree with this. Can we fully implement this with autosize, anchors
and OnResize? This way no new features would be needed.
I think that also the size of the form needs to be changed if after
AutoSize the contents of the form are bigger then expected.
Yes, this can happen, specially if we consider something that no one
has mentioned so far: Accessibility
Users with special needs often have special system configurations for
accessibility, like bigger standard font, different colors, so the
form should resize to make the bigger font fit.
Even on my computer, that has a slightly bigger standard font on
Windows, most forms from the IDE look bad. IMHO it´s wrong to resize
the forms to fit my font statically, because it will be bigger then
needed on others systems and still too small for others. The form
should be autosized. Maybe we can stablish a margin around the
components and use that to autosize it?
thanks,
