 * I’ve noticed two issues with this new feature:
 * 1) default width seems to be 1280 which is none of the drop down list items
    
   2) drop down list displays only 2…, 2…, 1…, D…, so the actual 2560 etc do not
   fit horizonally to drop down

 * Hello [@sailahen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sailahen/),
 * Let me address your questions one at a time:
 * 1) By default WordPress automatically applies maximum image width of 2560px. 
   The **Maximum Image Width** functionality in our plugin allows you to override
   this setting but only if the uploaded image size is larger than the listed ones.
   If the size of the uploaded images is 1280px most probably this is their original
   size which is less than the available options. In this case, the image will not
   be resized. Another possibility is for the default maximum image width to be 
   overridden by another plugin installed on your site.
 * 2) This is a small misfunction that happens after an update. It can be easily
   resolved by simply choosing one of the options. This will fix the issue and you
   will be able to set the option at the desired size afterward.

 * 2) Yes, that I noticed and then also new max width changed from 1280 to 1920.
   Anyway there is problem with SG Optimizer that it doesn’t set default value as
   Disabled but leaves it undefined (or 1280?) causing this truncated drop down 
   list. Now I need to manually set value for each WordPress installation to prevent
   this 1280 issue.
 * All in all, this is really good addition especially if some not so technical 
   is uploading images. Usually at least 4K to some direction or even more 🙂

 * I have just tested the **Maximum Image Width** functionality and it works as 
   intended on my end. I have uploaded a quite large image (7016×9933). If the **
   Maximum Image Width** is set to **Disabled** – the image size remains the same.
   Then I changed the setting to 1920px and the image was successfully resized to
   that size.
 * If the behavior on your end is different, please provide us with more information
   on how to recreate it on our end (you may include some screenshots as well). 
   If your site is hosted at SiteGround, please provide us with the URL.

 * Hello [@sailahen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sailahen/),
 * This is actually the malfunction my colleague Delyan mentioned:

 * Indeed, the default value for Maximum Width is not defined by default and you
   should manually choose a value. I would also like to note that the plugin’s developers
   have been notified about that.
 * Best regards,
