Issues with frame "Fit size to content" feature

I found two issues with the recently released "Fit size to content" feature for frames. Both were found in function graphs, they may also exist in regular graphs.

 

  1. Selecting multiple frames with CTRL key and applying "Fit size to content" only rezises the first frame.
  2. Some frames created prior to the Designer version having the frame resizing features do not have the "Fit size to content" when right-clicking on them, even after converting the graph to the new format. This seems to occur in particular for frames embedded into other frames (but not necessarilly for the parent frames).

    Thanks for the reply Lucas, but please realize that on 3 real issues I am mentionning, you are not considering any of them as defects, therefore are not going to address any of them!

    If you could please consider applying Resize to Fit to all the currently selected frames, that would be great, this is the most important issue imo. Thanks!

    Hello Olivier,

     

    Thank you for the feedback!

     

    1. Using 'Fit to content' on multiple selected frames at the same time is not supported. This is a known behaviour related to how some contextual menu actions work: they only impact what is below the cursor regardless of the current selection.
    2. A known issue is that the option is not available when a frame is below another frame (you can tell by its slightly duller color). A workaround is deleting the frame and undoing the deletion, which recreates it on top. Additionally, please note the option only appears if a Frame's interaction zone is below the cursor when the contextual menu is displayed.
    3. This is another known limitation of the 'Fit to content' feature: it requires that a node is included in the frame. The frame adapts to the description insofar as there is a node that it can try to accomodate the description around. I understand it seems convoluted, empty frames were discussed and eventually not considered in the scope of the feature, as the description is not considered as a content of the frame.

     

    I appreciate the thoughtful reports!

     

    Best regards.

    Another issue:

    3. create a frame with some long text into the Description section and no node inside it, then right-click on the frame to resize it to fit the Description content: "Fit size to content" is grayed out.
