Draw.io autosize by keeping width fixed, and expanding height if needed

Is there a way in draw.io, to autosize a text container, keeping it's width fixed, and telling draw.io to only adjust the height if neccessary?

I tried out almost all options in the properties of the text box, but when I apply the autosize, it always overwrites my set width and height, by making the width larger, and the height smaller.

I am putting these texts inside a swimlane, and what I would like to achieve is, either:

  1. when I add text to these text rectangles, the rectangle and the swimlane should expand automatically, but only vertically, ie, only the height of it should change (this would be the best for me, so that it is automatic)

  2. if the automatic solution is not achievable, I would be happy with something like manually pressing the autosize button, and draw.io should keep my width fixed, and change the size of the height only.

Couldn't find any documentation anywhere. But I notice that the behaviour of auto wrap is different depending on the object type that you choose. For example,

enter image description here

The above one is a "Rectangle". it won't resize the width when auto-sizing. The bottom one is a "UML/Object". It will resize both the width and height.
