Stretching the Space to Accomodate Images, etc.
In my old layout, Component, I found coding that would stretch the width of the entries so that pictures wouldn't bleed over outside of my layout. However, I'm having a hard time figuring out if that option is available in Expressive.

The reason why Component (and a few other layouts) stretch like that is because they use s for layout, which will expand horizontally to fit oversize content (and make the entire page scroll). Expressive uses block-level elements, or
s that are positioned with CSS for the layout.
However, there's no option in CSS to expand a box automatically. This is why the "Show scrollbars on entries" option was added back in the early days of Expressive. So, your options are pretty limited: You can show the scrollbars, cut off the images, or maybe re-size the entire layout, but you'd have to change the header width, too.

Aw, I was hoping I could fix this, but I understand the differences and why it can't work. Thanks for your help!
