What is FollowMainForm in TFormSize used for?

VCL TMS VCL UI Pack

I have a TFormSize that I'm using on additional dialogs that popup. I didn't want to save the position, just the size because I want it to come up centered over parent. The problem is that the centering is done prior to TFormSize adjusting the size so it's not centered in the parent window. I thought maybe that other option would help (at this point I was saving position too) but when I moved the main window and opened again, it just stayed where it was.

I think TFormSize should look at the dialog to see if Position is poMainFormCenter and if so, after changing the size, centering it if position is not being saved.

Does it help when you set Form.Position again to poMainFormCenter from the FormSize.OnLoaded event?

I don't see that event available - all I have under events is "DataSource" and "OnError"

Also what exactly is "FollowMainForm" and "Magnet" mean/do?

When you move it to the edge of the screen, it sticks to the screen edge
