Remarks
When an editor is displayed within a LayoutControl, you can use the AutoSizeInLayoutControl property to enable auto-size mode. In this instance, the editor’s width is changed to display the editor’s text in its entirety.
The layout control allows you to set size constraints for controls, specifying the range in which the control’s size can vary. See the Size and Alignment topic for more information.
Example
The following code shows how to enable the auto-size feature for a CheckEdit within a LayoutControl, and center the CheckEdit within the corresponding layout item.
using DevExpress.XtraLayout;
checkEdit1.AutoSizeInLayoutControl = true;
layoutControlItem2.SizeConstraintsType = SizeConstraintsType.SupportHorzAlignment;
layoutControlItem2.ContentHorzAlignment = DevExpress.Utils.HorzAlignment.Center;
See the following help topic for more information: Size and Alignment.
