Set Default Window Width

[zigmd]

The width of the window depends on the content. If there's less text, the window is narrow, and if there's more, it is wide.

It looks like the maximum window width is 80% - 85% of the screen, which I prefer.

How can set this max width as the default ?

I’m not sure what you’re asking for. By window width, do you mean the width of the page content, e.g. the width of a blog post’s body?

If so, are you asking for that width to always be the maximum width? Even for one-word bodies? In that case, the one word would appear to the left of the screen, not centered. I can’t test this for several days, but you should be able to style #paige-content to control the width. See the narrow look section in the readme for an example. In this case, you would set its width style to 100%.

@saurabh-sm Sorry for the delay. I'd like to better understand your position. Why do you want pages to always have the same width? If there are only 3 words in the page content, why do you want them to appear to the far left of the screen?

I prefer all pages to have the same width for consistency. I have a few pages where the content is not wide enough, but other pages have enough content to span the maximum width that Paige allows. Each page having the same width would be consistent.

There's a title and description in the front matter. The description I fill in is usually one - two sentences (about 15 words).

When the actual content of the page doesn't match the front matter's description, it looks odd.

So in terms of the page width being wide enough, the content is already there in the description. The actual page content is never as low as 3 words.

Furthermore, given that there's already a narrow look, a wide look would be nice.

What do you mean by "doesn't match"? Do you mean when the content is narrower than the description?

Can you paste a screenshot here?

Yes. Here's the screenshot:

I think headings "Foo" and "Bar" should be left aligned with "Random".
