ISS: Recovering vertical space in element

[Paolo F Cantoni]

In the Feature Visibility [Ctrl+Shift+Y] dialog, under the When Resizing Elements group, there should be a check box [X] Recover Vertical Space.

This could be linked to an extension of the [Alt-Z] (say [Ctrl+Alt+Z]) which would allow the width of the element(s) to remain the same, but the vertical size adjusted to the minimum.

This is an issue and not just a suggestion because if you alter the number of characters in the Note to less than the current value, then only that number of character is display, but he vertical space is not recovered!  This also occurs when you edit the notes and remove text.

This is in contrast to adding text which automatically elongates the element vertically.

Excellent observation. I agree that this is an issue, not just a feature request. The software is misbehaving.

... and why does Alt-Z not resize a note?

Or an Entity? [Not the stereotype, the Information Item.]
