Without a background frame?

Hello,

I couldn’t find any help in search.
Is it possible to enlarge the homepage content without a background frame? see photos.


Thanks very much

Hi OE3MNS,

Sadly not. The blocks remain the same size if the window fits 4 wide, 3, 2 or 1 wide.
The extra body with will show the background color or image.

You can enlarge it a little manually as you did for the screenshot.

But when changing the css/ html the “graphical” block parts does not behave nicely.
Let and middle part use "float: left; Right part use “float: right;”.
Sadly there is no “float: middle;” in the CSS specifications.

Thanks for your answer. The background to my question: The resolution of the screens are getting bigger and bigger on cell phones or on PCs, hence my consideration

In wide mode there will be two blocks on larger phones
If the phones get bigger and bigger with higher resolution maybe they will fit two blocks in tall mode also.
On tablets there will be two in tall mode and at least three in wide mode.

But the graphic blocks will not behave nicely when we use all available space on any device.
Two align the contents of the blocks I choose a fixed width and use the remaining part of the body as waste, or to use it for a background photo.


The extra information one would gain by using 100% in tall mode is minimal.
Maybe one extra day part in the text blocks, such as the forecasts.
The graphical blocks would not use the extra space available.

Sorry, spoke too soon.
Simple HTML5/CSS adaption lines 269-270 in the index script was enough.

Attached test version of PWS_index2.php
Make a copy of the current script first before replacing it with this beta-version.
It nicely enlarges the blocks when the width of the window does not allow 2 blocks wide.

@ ALL I am busy arranging my vacation which starts on Sunday.
I could not test the whole bunch of browsers and platforms.

Hope to roll it out next update end of August.
