# Column Width? Make Dynamic?

 * Enjoying the theme – thank you!
 * Question – Is there CSS to change the width of the text of paragraphs globally
   so they fill the width of the entire column instead of 3/4s?
 * I was able to create the column with the translucent background, centered to 
   page like I wanted with this but there’s a DIV (div.entry-content I believe) 
   that seems to handle the content that I can’t widen out.
 * Currently I have:
 * #main.site-main {
    background: rgba(153,31,0,0.2); border-radius: 25px; padding:
   20px; margin: 0 auto; max-width: 1100px; }
 * Thanks!

 * From what I can see inspecting, the <P> is all hard coded to 768. Setting it 
   to width=auto does nothing. Setting it to 1100 works but I suspect there’s someplace
   where the <P> is set internally?

 * Hi
 * The theme -and the widths, needs a makeover for the new editor, but I am not 
   sure when I will find the time. Propably not until mid november.
 * Note: Longer line lengths are more difficult to read that is why there is a limit.
   I _think_ the new editor is even narrower, at least by default.

 * No worries – I just notice on a 1080p monitor full screen, the text wraps sooner
   then the full width of the column and yea, that’s usually not how people watch
   but it seems like there is that max 768 hardcoded somewhere instead of some auto
   setting yet when I do set it for auto in an inspector, it doesn’t work – but 
   forcing it to 1100 does, etc…
 * Still a great theme! Great job!

 * It is also possible that I dont fully understand the problem or the question :).
   
   I believe you mean the width of the post content? Or do you mean something like
   the blog and archives where there are 3 colums by default? Or column blocks in
   the new editor?

 * No worries – I had to jump to a different theme but I was referring to posts 
   displayed through your theme – not the editor.
