    Hello guys! In demo video from https://generateblocks.com/ the main column width of the Gutenberg Editor is much wider than default width (~780 px). Is this done through the plugin?

    Hi there,

    Not sure if I fully understand.

    The container blocks have a width setting:
    https://docs.generateblocks.com/article/container-overview/#standalone-block

    Does that help?

    Hi Leo! You misunderstood. Compare the width of two Gutenberg editors.
    1. My block editor: http://joxi.ru/a2XXM5pHDev4k2
    2. Your block editor from demo video on GenerateBlocks website (click “Watch Video” button): http://joxi.ru/nAyK7WVijL6wqm
    So much empty white space around in the default (narrow) main column of Block Editor. Words are moved to a new line. There is no such thing in demo video from GenerateBlocks website. I assume that in the demo video the author (Tom Usborne?) somehow expanded the main column width of the Block Editor.

    It should reflects the container width in the customizer:

    No. The container width in the customizer has nothing to do with the width of Block Editor. Take a look screenshots below, compare the width of container in the frontend and the width of main column of Block Editor. These are not the same containers.
    Screenshot 1 (Frontend. The Customizer affects the width): http://joxi.ru/KAgqQ1pIXBPoam
    Screenshot 2 (Main column of Gutenberg Editor. The Customizer does not affect the width): http://joxi.ru/YmEMLXEtJK1gYm
    In the demo video from GenerateBlocks the width of main column of Gutenberg Editor is much wider than default narrow width.
    I assume that the author of video changed the width of the Block editor using this code. Is that so?

    That is incorrect – it actually does by default

    Please check out the following screenshots:

    Wow! For some reason, my container width (1300 px) in the Customizer doesn’t affect the width of the Block Editor (780 px). I have no clue.

    Try disabling all plugins and any custom functions to see if there are any plugin conflicts.
