In a new Elements project I am getting a strip of white space on the right edge that only appears on my iPhone in the vertical position, It does not appear on iPhone horizontal, on my iPad, or on my Mac. ![CleanShot%202025-10-30%20at%2017.33.16](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/b/d/bd36a133421179c5483fde395f1370c3184fcce4.jpeg) ---

Many thanks Paul, I checked “Sizing” and a couple of settings were on Breakpoint, but that didn’t fix the issue. When I checked “Content Layout” most of the settings were set for breakpoint, I changed them to Full and that seemed to fix the issue. What is concerning is that I didn’t set them to Breakpoint. Do you know if Breakpoint is the default setting? Anyway, I appreciate your help! ---

Yes, breakpoint is the default setting. ---

@Sundogg still a few more issues to sort out after this, quick look images not centered, dark mode needs adjusting, not checked any more correct those and see what happens, there are text setting issues as well some of these settings are different across screen sizes, not sure why you have all those sig’s in the footer ---

I was aware that some images were not centered, and that the dark mode made some sections unreadable, but I hadn’t looked into figuring out how to fix those yet. I downloaded your video and slowed it down and copied your corrections. I appreciate you taking the time to show me. ---

No probs, if you need more help just let me know, saw some text issues and other issues as well. If you check each container etc for padding margins width also using the guides turned on and check for float in the mobile screen first, to see additional width beyond screen size ---

Thanks Steve, I will go over the new video as soon as I have time. I’ve made a good bit of changes since my upgrade. I’ve run into issues with custom colors not always working for text or backgrounds. But right now I am stumped that on the computer view my drop down menu appears behind my Banner or behind my book cover if I remove the Banner. elementsapp://downloadDocument/M0Pcs6O2feKM ---

a couple of changes shown, most of the time there is no need to use padding and margins to position, especially centering Im running out of space to record videos not sure why you have the menu on the first page in ‘everything’, a lot of components in there, same for other pages not sure why you need a menu in a menu, it would be good to sort out your menu for each page [Next page](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/why-am-i-getting-a-white-space/52129.md?page=2)
