Font horizontal shrinking

Why when I resize a label horizontally the text shrinks only horizontally?

In other frameworks resizing is done both horizontally and vertically so that the label text looks smaller instead of looking completely disproportionate.

Is there a way to disable this?
If not, how can I change it?

Thanks.

It’ll shrink it a bit, but if it gets too small, it’ll break it over different lines. If you don’t like the behaviour, you can write yourself a custom look+feel to draw it any way you like.
