Flag XTF2\_AUTOEXPROW works analogously to XTF2\_AUTOEXPCOL to add extra space to each row to fill out the allotted vertical area of the tree. It only applies to trees with fixed height rows—i.e., XTF\_VARY flag not set. It is normally accompanied by the XTMF\_INTHEIGHT flag (in XTR.MISCFLAGS) which has a similar/related purpose. While XTMF\_INTHEIGHT by itself (without XTF2\_AUTOEXPROW) cause the height of the tree to shrink slightly, so as to avoid having a partially visible row at the bottom, XTF2\_AUTOEXPROW causes the row heights to expand slightly, avoiding the partial row at the bottom but also avoiding the need to shrink the tree height.
Note that while XTF2\_AUTOEXPCOL may seem to make XTMF\_INTHEIGHT superfluous, the requirement of making each row the same height may result in a small pixel remainder after dividing the extra space between the rows. The XTMF\_INTHEIGHT flag will then eliminate that by making a small adjustment to the overall height.
