Header merge dont work. Help me pls

Hello!
It seems that the merging of header and content is broken and not working. Tried everything, but nothing works.
Help me pls.



How do I merge the site header with the content on the page?
UPDATE: resolved.
Leo made a mistake when writing this manual:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/transparent-header-and-navigation/
To make it work - you need to set the container to full width. David explained more about the solution to this problem:

To make it work – you need to set the container to full width.
That is not a requirement for the merge option.
Glad you found a solution anyways :)
Without setting it to full width, nothing will work (see the first screenshot).
The content did not connect to the header.
I'll need to see the issue live if you want to dig deeper :)
It's not that I want to dig deeper, I'm just suggesting that you pay attention to this, and fix the bug so that others don't have to look up how to solve it.
Because I'm not the only one who hasn't had it work without the full width setting. Example:

You can try not including the full width yourself, and you'll see that the header and content merge doesn't work.
Of course, if you're interested.
Hi there,
It's not actually a bug. The Merged header is still working, but what you have is the Top Padding ( Customizer > Layout > Container ) from the content sitting behind the merged header. By changing the Content Container to Full Width, the Themes padding is removed. Which fixes the issue.
But as Leo said we're glad to hear you got it resolved .
