See

function TCustomLabel.CalcFittingFontHeight(const TheText: string;
   MaxWidth, MaxHeight: Integer;
   var FontHeight, NeededWidth, NeededHeight: integer): Boolean;


A flag is given to DrawText

You can look up DrawText in each widgetset, it may exist with and 
without themes...
Best to hit it in the debugger, and see where it goes.

What exactly do you want to change?

IMHO it works very well, even with auto-sizing, BUT you need to anchor 
left and right to other controls
