Hierarchical sheets: Autoplace fields ("O") not working

Description

"Autoplace fields (hotkey "O") does not work for hierarchical sheets.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create hierarchical sheet, resize it;
  2. Select hierarchical sheet, hit "O" hotkey;
  3. Nothing happens.

It is expected that "sheet name" / "sheet filename" fields will be nicely realigned, as symbol fields would do.
