AutoSize property in EDIT controls, whats it do?

Like the heading states, what is the purpose of this property when it does not seem to do anything for any edit controls that I can see?
I found it, It controls height only but not length

This is mostly useful to create a single form code that behaves and displays consistently across platforms and widgetsets. The default absolute positioning will instantly break the moment you have more than 1 target platform.
