How to manually adjust Obsidian note margin size

[TJW527]

What I’m trying to do

I’m trying to make custom-scalable margins so I can fit larger images and wider text lines WITHOUT disabling ‘Readable line length’.

Things I have tried

Tried CSS code blocks from ChatGPT but they didn’t work and I don’t know CSS at all so idk what I’m doing.

Readable line length needs to be enabled for any of these snippets to work.

For the default and almost all community themes, you can use these (for example) on a per-note basis. The class, wideish-view (no dot) etc., goes in the cssclasses section for any notes you want to change.

.wideish-view {
    --file-line-width: 900px; }

.wide-view {
    --file-line-width: 1200px; }

.full-view {
    --file-line-width: 100%; }

If you want to change the readable line length of all notes in a vault, replace the cssclass with body.

body {
    --file-line-width: 1200px; /* default RLL is 700px */ }
