How can I automatically re-size Draw.io's UML “Class” shape after adding new lines representing extra...












0















It is tedious to extend the height and width of the class shape areas after added new fields or methods to the class representation.



Googling suggests ctrl-shft-y, / Arrange -> Autosize, but this does not appear to work as expected for "Class" shapes. (It works fine on a regular rectangle).



Has anyone found a good way to add extra fields without manual overhead?

          When text is written only in one line,
          (when a new row is added)
          try to select only that row (not the whole UML shape)
          and go to Arrange > Autosize or press Ctrl+Shift+y

          It should work well.



          When the new row is added,
          but the text is written in 2 or more lines,
          please tick a "Formatted text" in Text tab (Format panel)
          and then go to Arrange > Autosize or press Ctrl+Shift+y



          It should increase the hight of the row.

            I didn't understand list shapes in Draw.io.



            It's explained here https://desk.draw.io/support/solutions/articles/16000054082-adding-entries-in-uml-diagrams



            Ctrl-Enter to 'add a new line' (clone a shape in the list) and enter to edit/rename that shape.
