Automatic parking break

Is there a way to apply parking break automatically when you put the car in parking? My F-Pace used to do that. Just curious!
I know it auto releases the parking breaks when you accelerate the car but trying to find a way to apply auto breaks in parking without pulling the break switch.

I believe if you push the start stop engine button instead of using the park button it will do all three, shift to park, apply parking brake, and shut off engine.

It does that, but I THINK it is linked to the Auto-Hold setting. If you have AH on, it will do it -- if AH is off, it won't and you have to manually set the parking break.

Which is rather annoying, as AH is the only setting that is NOT saved in the driver profile and I always want it on, and my wife always want it off! Had a few scares because of that already...
