 * Hi there,
 * The full align option is actually defined by your theme, and in many themes, 
   it will cause a horizontal scroll issue.
 * This issue would occur for any WP blocks that’s set to align full, you can test
   with a WP cover block, set it to align full, does the same issue occur? If so,
   please contact your theme support for this issue.
 * Meanwhile, you can use this CSS to hide the overflow content:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       body,html {
           overflow-x:hidden;
       }
       ```

 * Actually this occur only that page where container width set to full, otherwise
   all other pages have no problem. I am using GeneratePress premium theme.

 * Hi Balendu,
 * That WordPress fullwidth option can be problematic in most, if not all, themes.
 * What we would advise is to set the page to Full width instead. Then, place Container
   Blocks to have contained sections. Reference: [https://docs.generatepress.com/article/content-container/](https://docs.generatepress.com/article/content-container/)

 * I have defined page width full and kept container block width wide then this 
   is what I am seeing – [https://app.screencast.com/ZhNTdWa87vIpB](https://app.screencast.com/ZhNTdWa87vIpB)
 * And, with same scenario when I a kept container width full then this what I am
   seeing – [https://app.screencast.com/I8lorG4jA6tzW](https://app.screencast.com/I8lorG4jA6tzW)

 * Can you set the page to full width and remove the full-width alignment setting
   from all Container Blocks or any other Blocks on the page?

 * There are three types of options available (default, wide, full) in the container
   layout section, and at any point in time, one of the options is active. in such
   case, I am seeing this –  [https://app.screencast.com/ZhNTdWa87vIpB](https://app.screencast.com/ZhNTdWa87vIpB)
   without a scrollbar at the bottom of the page.
 * But it doesn’t looks good when I give background color to the container.

 * You can set the page to full width using the layout metabox: [https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-metabox-overview/#where-is-it](https://docs.generatepress.com/article/layout-metabox-overview/#where-is-it)
 * Once that’s done, all GB blocks are full width by default, you do NOT need to
   activate that FULL WIDTH option.
