container full-width

I seem to have 2 problems that may be related
1) I can’t seem to get pages to show up in the page container. It’s set for 1200px in the customizer, but pages show full width:

You can see that some elements, like the nav and footer, do respect the container width
2) If I build something in beaverbuilder, the rows are full width but the content is confined inside the 1200 px container

FYI, I created this site by loading ‘Trade’ from the site library: https://generatepress.com/site-library/
Hi there,
The full width pages are full width because they're using the "Full Width" option in the Page Builder Container metabox: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/page-builder-container/
The other pages are contained because they aren't using that option.
It's also worth noting you can set the container using Layout Elements.
Hope this helps :)
Thanks. I'm new to using layout elements, I just didn't know to look there. That's where the designer had specified the page builder to be full width.
I wonder if it's worth while for GP to build the page HTML with a class showing the name of the 'layout element', to make it a little easier to track down what CMS feature inserted the code. The biggest hassle with CMS's is hunting down the configuration page.
Thanks for the great support.
Glad I could help :)
Appreciate the feedback!
