You don't know either the order nor the occasions when OnDrawCell is called.

So you would be better doing the cell width adjustment outside the OnDrawCell.
Do it when you load the stringgrid with text (measuring the widths of all
Strings in every TStringGrid.Cols and doing one change, calling
LockWindowUpdate(MyStringgrid.Handle) before setting all the columns and
LockWidowUpdate(0) after, to prevent an immediate redraw on every setting
change. Also (if you allow editing of cells) call the column width setting for
the edited column in OnSetEditText.
