system wide default width preference

Explain the problem as you see it

When using a large screen, the width defaults back to Auto.

Why is this a problem for you?

Not using the available screen real estate leads to a lot of unnecessary scrolling

Suggest a solution

A system-wide user preference default width. On my Mac, I would set this to Full

Please, please, please add this soon. My team and I are constantly having to set width to full...as in it is probably the interaction I make most in a day. Countless times a day.

Either allow a system wide width preference. Or nodes could just remember their last width setting and only change if manually set again (I originally thought this is how it would work as remembering the last setting just makes intuitive sense).

We can put up with it for the time being, but this will eventually drive us off platform if it doesn't come somewhat soon. Having to do this countless times every day is really going to get draining, especially when a huge part of what makes Tana incredible is the ability to streamline and avoid unnecessary clicks/inputs.

It would be less of an issue if auto width worked properly, but I have yet to see it automatically set width to full...it always sets it to medium even when the displayed views/data span extremely far to the right.
