How to make Button/Slicer width fits to text (for localization)?

Is there a way to make the size/width of a PBI visual(e.g., button/slicer) to be fit to the text/title?
 
[What's the issue]
For localization, different length/width for different languages. e.g., I have 2 buttons next to each other, one with text "string 1" and another one with text "string 2". Here's how it looks in English:

but strings could get longer/wider in other languages, e.g., Dutch, texts become
"tekenreeks 1" for "string 1", and "tekenreeks 2" for "string 2" while buttons keep the same width:

In other cases, strings/text could get shorter, then there will be a gap between the button texts in other languages, sometimes the gap/space between the texts are very visible:

For slicers, same issue: currently the slicer sizes and layout are based on en-US, here's an example:

But when applying to other languages, as the title might become wider, e.g., in es-ES, it's messed up:

Is there a way/option/workaround to resolve this? Thanks in advance!

Hi @JianbiaoLu 

For the problem you mentioned, there is no suitable method to support automatic adjustment of button and slicer size.

You can put your ideas to Ideas Froum , if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.
