 * I am uncertain whether this is a Neve theme or an Otter issue, so please point
   me in the right direction but give it serious consideration as I believe it may
   be an Otter issue. I am using Neve them and Otter blocks. I have tried every 
   conceivable combination of wide width, full width, regular width, and page template
   and cannot figure out how to do this: **Full width background with contained 
   content blocks**. If you take a look at [https://esvamarket.com/vendors/](https://esvamarket.com/vendors/)
   the top block is full width, but the block really isn’t contained. Rather, it
   is simply a short heading centered on the page. Scroll down to the Vendor Eligibility
   section and I’d like the yellow background to stretch the full width. I can do
   that by selecting Wide Width alignment, but then the wording is no longer contained
   despite the fact that the default page template is “default template” which is
   contained and the Neve options are “contained”. Any suggestions? Thank you!

 * Hi,
 * To do a full-width section that can keep the element contained, you must use 
   two Section Blocks. One section will serve as a background, and the other will
   have the content.
    The steps are: 1. Insert a Section block. Press Skip when 
   it asks about the layout (in this way, we will have a single column). 2. Set 
   the section’s width to Full Width in toolbar controls. 3. Inside the column, 
   insert another Section Block. Go to Inspector > Section Structure and select 
   the Maximum Content Width using the slider. (Beware that there is a minor bug
   with the slider that does not allow you to reach the end. This will be solved
   in the next release.)
 * You will have to adjust the Maximum Content Width to fit your page flow.
    You
   can see here how it looks: [https://satisfyingbell.tastewp.com/2022/01/17/full-width/](https://satisfyingbell.tastewp.com/2022/01/17/full-width/)
   Here is the example snippet: [https://gist.github.com/Soare-Robert-Daniel/2488ff2074c0904f76c1f287242b9ddb](https://gist.github.com/Soare-Robert-Daniel/2488ff2074c0904f76c1f287242b9ddb);
   you can copy this and insert it in a separate Paragraph block to see if this 
   solution fits your needs.
 * Have a great day!
