Question about the Grid

[Kobber]

Hi,

I have a project where I want to use the Grid on some sections, and just regular rows and columns on other sections. But - though I’ve bought Gridorama and watched a bunch of videos I still have questions :).

If you look at my attached image, I want to control the middle of my pages so that text in the Grid is within lets say 1400 px on desktop, so it lines up nicely under each other and doesn’t float. But I want to be able to have images and graphics to go beyond the 1400 px.

I hope you understand my question and what I’m aiming at :).

Can you answer it or point me to a video that explains it?

Thanks in advance!

Hello @Kobber,

Thanks for writing in! You can enable the Global Container in your Grid element settings. Assuming that in Cornerstone > Theme Options > Layout and Design > Site Max Width, you have set it to 1400 pixels.

Thanks @ruenel but if you look at my image the Grid should be wider than 1400. I want to control the middle of my pages so that text in the Grid is within 1400 px on desktop, so it lines up nicely under each other and doesn’t float.

Nevermind - I got help from another source.

For references - this is the solution:

minmax(2%, 1fr) minmax(2%, 1fr) minmax(auto, calc(700px - 1em)) 2em minmax(auto, calc(700px - 1em)) minmax(2%, 1fr) minmax(2%, 1fr)

Hi @Kobber,

Glad that you are able to find the solution and share it with others.

Thanks
