Auto-sort in applications view?

[majordude]

This is driving me nuts!

When I add a new app it always adds to the bottom of the icon view (even if it is 1password which should be #1). And if I resize the view box, the icons stay in the same place, they do not fill the screen. How can I fix this?

I want all icons to be in alphabetical order and when I make the window wider, (I want all the icons to flow and fit the window, not stay in 4 columns even if I make the window wider).

View > Arrange by Name.
This will make the icons sort by name.

The icons should move when you resize the window. Check View Options.
