Any way to prevent update to enum constant size on BD after edit?

Forgive me if there is an obvious fix to this. I hope my attached pics are clear.

Is there any way to keep this from happening when I add a new value to a type definition enumeration?

I find it really annoying that adding a value or changing the text in an enumeration would show up in all my Block Diagrams being

less readable.

This is "fixed" in LabVIEW 2010, I think.

Actually its not.

I was hoping someone might have found a way to work around this annoyance other than to use 4 letter enum text fields.

No worries though. While it is annoying to have your Bdiagrams messed each time you change somethjing in the type definition it certainly is not a show stopper.

To avoid missing up the BD each time, as we are using some typedef'd clusters of enums that take up a certain amount of space on the diagram, I have taken to encapsulating them in a vi, so that at least from an aesthetic point of view they: 1) don't take up too much space, 2) don't suddenly change their shape due to some small edit of the typedef.
