Auto-adjusting Window Tag Size

Okay, so I think I have done this before, but I cannot seem to find the file nor can I remember how.

What I am wanting is a window tag which will get wider automatically as the text gets longer. Door tags have this capability when I choose an oval, but I haven't ever used ovals for window tags. I usually use a Hexagon or a Rotated Hexagon. I thought I got this auto-adjusting size for a Rotated Hexagon in ArchiCAD before for 3D windows, but I just cannot remember how.

I attached an image of the look I am going for, but remember that this is a 100% 2D drawing.

Sadly you can only use either oval and fragment for auto adjusting window tags.
