Adjust splitpane divider to reveal hidden labels with label dialog opened or closed
USE CASE: WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?
Show hidden labels when the user is trying to deal with label settings.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE AN ISSUE (OR TRIGGER A NEW FEATURE)
- Open small_133x133.cdt
- Drag the row tree splitpane divider to make the tree take up all the space (i.e. so that no labels can be seen).
- Select View->Labels...
CURRENT BEHAVIOR
Changes to label settings are not visible in this scenario.
EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
If the user is exploring the label settings, they may get confused when they cannot see any labels. Thus, if the label settings dialog is opened and the labels are hidden by the trees, the splitpane divider should be automatically adjusted to reveal the label area.

SUGGESTED CHANGE (Pseudocode optional)
Not only should the splitpane divider be adjusted, it might be prudent to change the draggrid panel sizes too.

COMMENTS
This is based on a new user experience. They had adjusted the size of the row tree pane using the splitpane divider and later were trying to make the row labels appear using the label settings. So it makes sense that if the user is adjusting label settings, they may be trying to reveal the labels, not understanding where they should be or that they are covered up.
Note, there is another issue related to this one that suggests adjusting the position of the splitpane divider based on the size of the longest label.
