No. setActualSize() should be called in updateDisplayList(). That is called after the measurement phase. The Label object will measure itself based on the text assigned to it, so it doesn't care what size you have set on it (for the purpose of measurement). The Label object's getExplicitOrMeasuredWidth() and getExplicitOrMeasuredHeight() methods will return the values computed in its measure() implementation. Manish
