How do I increase the width of the note being displayed in the right panel?

[csharp2a]

The note being displayed in the right panel is quite narrow and takes up (centers) about 1/3 or the available window real estate. I would like to make the notes appear wider so they can be editied and viewed as intended.

How do I do this? Thanks!

Can you post a screenshot and show (circle/highlight/whatever) the area you are talking about?

Hi and thank you for the reply. I have outlined the areas in red. Is there a way to spread the document to utilize this ares. The document being exactly centered is very narrow.

Ahh, I see.

How to change this will vary depending on the theme you are using.

Other themes may have Style Settings as well, but for the Minimal and AnuPpuccin themes, see →

What theme do you use? You can do this with CSS, but the easiest way to do it would be using theme settings (which vary wildly theme by theme).

If the theme doesn’t have settings, you can use a CSS snippet →

/*- editor line width - default 700px -*/ 
body {
  --file-line-width: 850px;  
}

It might also be related to your enabling/disabling of Settings > Editor > Display > Readable line length, which for some of the themes (if not all?) needs to be disabled to allow for really long line lengths.

Hi all. Thank you for your replies. I found that most themes that I tried have the ability to use the Readable Line Length setting. The Max Preview width seems to also work with some themes. I went with the Readable Line Length and it seems to do what I was after.
I really appreciate the help. I think I might be able to use Obsidian now and slowly move from EN.
