Auto Height and Width For Cards

At present, we have the capability to set only the width to 'Auto' in our dashboard. It would be highly beneficial if we could also set the height to 'Auto.' The current fixed height option is causing responsiveness issues with our cards. Depending on the screen size, it either adds a scrollbar or extra space. Allowing the card's height and width to dynamically adjust according to their content and the user's screen size would significantly improve the responsiveness of our dashboards.

Thank you for submitting this idea. We currently do not have this on our roadmap but will take a look at this as a future enhancement!

    I came here to request something similar to the OP. Not having the ability to make our dashboards vertically responsive is compromising the design and useful of our dashboards and apps for our clients.

    We have several dashboards that are meant to act as single page 'at a glance' dashboards. Regardless of the monitor they are being viewed on, the user should see all content on screen at once, without needing to scroll, and without any wasted screen space.

    However, as the OP said, this not currently possible with the default layout. Cards can be sized to fit on a single monitor vertically, but when viewed on a different monitor they will often extend beyond the height of the screen, or appear 'shrunk' inside a letterbox not taking full advantage of the screen space.

    An optional feature similar to how cards and bricks currently use all horizontal space available, scaling cards as necessary, would be very useful.
