The panel is sized to fit the available client space, try setting the minimum size if you don’t want the width to shrink less than 250. The panel is responsible for scrolling its own content so you may need to put your user panel in a scrolling container.

Is that why setting the `UserControl AutoScroll` to `true` has no effect?
