TWinControl.AdjustClientRect procedure

Declaration

procedure AdjustClientRect(var ARect: TRect); virtual

Description

In TWinControl, the virtual method has an empty implementation. It can be overridden in descendent classes to perform actions needed for the class type. Such as:

• Shrink or grow the client rectangle to account for added or removed borders or bezels.
• Reserve space for companion controls or user interface elements.
• Set state or configuration flags which affect the client rectangle for the class.

AdjustClientRect can be called often, especially during auto-sizing and anchoring operations. Do not use expensive code here, or cache the resulting client rectangle for subsequent access.
