Just a simple example...

Form.Init() looks like the following
PARAMETERS cText

LOCAL nTextWidth

THIS.Text.Caption = cText
THIS.Text.Autosize = .T.
nTextWidth = THIS.Text.width


At this point nTextWidth is always equal to the original width of the
Label (at design-time).

The Label is autosized correctly on the screen but the
autosize does not seem to update the width property....
