Right-click: Autosizing/Size To Fit should do what you want.

Sorry, i'm not agree, "size to fit" and "auto grow" are not the same thing.
"size to fit" automatically resizes, these two behaviors are different.

say that it is already implemented is a "shortcut" (an easy way to close this idea), and it is not true.

OK, I now see that is very slightly different - Size To Fit means both Auto Grow and Auto Shrink.  What you're asking is for a way to grow without also shrinking as another way of autosizing a cluster.

 

Perhaps this idea shouldn't be closed, though it would help if you gave some more information as to why you think this functionality would be useful.

 

Also, is there a reason not to want the same functionality for controls and indicators?

The difference between 'Autogrow' and 'Size to Fit' is that Autogrow will not give space back.  I may not want that particular option myself, but if that is specifically what the OP is after, I have to agree that it is not already implemented.  Already rejected, perhaps, but not implemented.

 

Size to Fit came to my mind as well, I would suggest a few more details in the idea post if the distinction is so important.

It is difficult for me to explain with much more details, my English is not good enough to do that.

I will try tomorrow, i will do my best .. because right now it's late, 2:00 AM here. Smiley Happy
