Hi Jared, Do you think it make sense we use the below css rules in the patch[1] to keep the `.pane-container` element have fixed width as 664? ``` .pane-container { display: block; max-width: 664px; min-width: 664px; } ``` I tried to use the below css rules to do so but it doesn't work. Do you have any other idea to let the `.pane-container` element have a fixed width in this case? ``` .pane-container { display: block; width: 664px; } ``` Thank you.

This node doesn't use XUL layout, because display: block is used here. Mixing XUL and non-XUL layout is generally fragile. Why was display: block used here?

Why was display: block > used here? Hi DĂŁo, According to my understand, `display: block` is a workaround[1] to keep the container always float on the `top: 0` which added at Bug 1377009.

Fixed it by adding `align=start` into it's parent node since the default vaule of `align` is `stretch` which means the child elements are stretched to fit the size of the parent elements.
Hi Mike, Fixed the `max-width` and `min-width` issue. Could you help review it again? Thank you.

Much of the content will already resize correctly to narrower widths. This seems to make the experience for people on small resolutions worse. For example, on Nightly 46.0a1 (2016-01-01), the full window of the preferences resizes to an innerWidth of 517px before horizontal scrollbars appear. This patch sets a min-width of 664px just on the .pane-container, which makes the min-width of the full window larger than 720px. ::: browser/themes/shared/incontentprefs/preferences.inc.css:161 (Diff revision 6) > + #categories { > + width: 118px; > + } > + .category, > + .category:hover, > + .category[selected] { > + padding-inline-start: 47px; /* make category icons align center */ In small windows, why do we use so much space to pad the category icons? This takes away useful space from .pane-container.

Bug 1377174 is moving category changes to common.inc.css. For instance, `width: 240px` will be added in *|*.category within common.inc.css. Other in-content pages would be broken if RWD style only apply in preferences.inc.css.

But you make a good point here. And this is a design issue. Let's hear feedback from designer, Helen. But she is on PTO today. Let's discuss this when she is back. ::: browser/themes/shared/incontentprefs/preferences.inc.css:161 (Diff revision 6) > + #categories { > + width: 118px; > + } > + .category, > + .category:hover, > + .category[selected] { > + padding-inline-start: 47px; /* make category icons align center */ To Jared, It is also a design issue. Let's wait for Helen's feedback. To Ricky, Sure, let's do it.
Hi Helen, What do you think of Comment 19? And let's discuss it in person tomorrow when you have time. Thank you very much.
Flags: needinfo?(hhuang)
Discussed with Helen in person this morning, she is considering the details of the visual design change for min-width (we might use `min-width: 530px` here) and category list issues in Comment 19 and and will reply it later. And let's see where we want to go and get feedback form Jared, and let's update the patch for it.
Attached image screenshot.png (deleted) —
I see Jared's point that set 664px as mini-width will work badly on the small resolution. Per discussion with Evan, we use Privacy & Security page as an example. When the minimum width of the content area is 530px, the characters of the shortest sentence is around 47 per line, and it could still provide a good reading experience (ideal range is 40-60), so maybe it's okay to set 530px as min-width. Jared, Is it okay for you?

Attached image screenshot.png showing category width (deleted) —
Yes, increasing to 530px is an improvement. Do you think we would be able to reduce the amount of space between the category list and the pane content? In your screenshot, there is somewhere around 30px more space to the right of the category icons than to the left of the category icons. Ideally we should balance this, right? I have attached a screenshot showing my measurements.

Rebased and updated patch for Comment 26. The last thing we need to make a decision and do is fixing the Comment 27. Will discuss it with Helen in person later.

Hi Jared, Discussed with Helen in person, we think we could remove the 28px padding when on the small window (>= 960px) mode. She will update the spec when she has time. Thank you, Helen. And I've updated the patch for our conclusions. Could you please review it again? Thank you.

I've modified the spec accordingly, please see the updated spec https://mozilla.invisionapp.com/share/X8BGCX9PD#/245152761_RWD_-_W840. Thanks!

See https://www.screencast.com/t/sHlkH0wIs for a screenshot. If we can add 10px of padding there, and if Helen is OK with it, then I think this will be good to land. The spec doesn't show how the window should look when we have a narrow window and we are not cutting off the content, so it is not obvious what was desired in this state.
