Docs don't describe the function of this property.
The fact that its called the 'Minimum Size' is confusing to most people.  It's actually more like a Maximum Size or just plain Size.

The property should be set to the Actual Size of the content within the control. Because, when the actual size of the content is larger then the size of the control thats when the scroll bars need to show. 

So you should set the AutoScrollMinSize = Size of your Content.
