What are your solution to the width issue on collection views?

I’ve created a collection view of my Customers table in Noloco, but the width of collection pages can’t be adjusted.

To work around this, I hid the Customers collection view from the sidebar and instead created a blank page where I added a list view showing my Customers. In that list view, I can set the width to Large.

However, when I click on a Customer from that blank page, it redirects me to the original record page in the hidden Customers collection view. Since that view is hidden, I lose track of where I am in the app, It is no longer highlighted in the sidebar.

How are you handling this? What’s your approach to get around this?

I’ve encountered the same issue. For our use case loosing track of the navigation in the app was a deal breaker, so our solution was to stick with the original collection view and not using the large width.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this @Mikkel I guess I’ll stick with collection view too, even though it looks odd on bigger screens.

You could overwrite the class controlling the width in the custom code section
```

style
.max-w-screen-xl {
max-width: 1800px; !important
}
/style

```

max-width is set to 1279px I think initially?
