How to stop auto resizing of ExB based off of screen size

Question

This may sound like a funny question.

I always liked how products could autosize to the screen I was using, however it's bugging the organisation I build the ExB for because it reshapes too much. (I guess their screens are too small. No they are not looking at it on their phones. They are using laptops.)

Hopefully an easy win for somebody. Is there something I can do in ExB to stop the autoresizing?

They would prefer to have to scroll to see the rest of the page.

Thanks David. Just talked to the client. Looks like they are only experience the screen minimizing issue like me. When they move the ExB from 1920 to a smaller laptop screen, the far left and right sides aren't cut off.

Hi @elpinguino , the only thing I have been able to do is tune my layouts for each of the large, medium and small screen sizes by setting widgets to pending and then re-adding them with custom sizes

For some small sizes, I have had to eliminate certain widgets.  Generally anything other than a desktop I go vertical for portrait orientations.  Then on tablets, a landscape orientation will bounce back to more of horizontal type layout.

Hi @Jianxia ,

Thanks for your reply. I have changed all the blocks to 1920 px width. It looks promising, but there are still some issues.

When I use the ExB in a smaller screen, the wider parts are cut off or the background colour doesn't show properly. I took a video showing the issue.

This video shows how it works in a 1920 screen, but when I make the screen size smaller, the widgets do not refresh.

The video you shared was useful. Thank you. I watched it once during the user conference. Watching it again was a good refresher. If anyone else stumbles across this post later. The section to go to is at 27 minutes - px vs %.
