Signature

counterAxisSizingMode: 'FIXED' | 'AUTO'

Remarks

Auto-layout frames have a primary axis, which is the axis that resizes when you add new items into the frame. For example, frames with "VERTICAL" layoutMode resize in the y-axis.

The other axis is called the counter axis.

"FIXED": The counter axis length is determined by the user or plugins, unless the layoutAlign is set to “STRETCH” or layoutGrow is 1.
"AUTO": The counter axis length is determined by the size of the children. If set, the auto-layout frame will automatically resize along the counter axis to fit its children.

Note: “AUTO” cannot be used in any axes where layoutAlign = “STRETCH” or layoutGrow = 1. Either use “FIXED” or disable layoutAlign/layoutGrow.
