No, there doesn't exist such a preference. It would also not make much sense, 
because that size is not fixed.

If it doesn’t exist, it doesn’t exist, that’s fine. I don’t understand though 
why it wouldn’t make sense to want to have the “auto resize” action apply every 
time I open a PDF (and add a new note for that matter); after all, I can make 
“Automatically resize” the standard for PDF display. It might not be for 
everybody, but it certainly has some kind of logic to it (mainly my desire to 
see the entire’s note content).

Jan Jakob

Because it is highly context sensitive. The context is things like the text of 
any note and the width of the note pane. In particular, if the note pane is 
collapsed, the row height would be infinite, which would make no practical 
sense. And resizing all the rows dynamically whenever any of the dependent 
conditions change is far too demanding.
