In our mission to provide the most versatile knowledge management platform, we understand that how you present information is just as important as the information itself. Today, we are excited to announce a significant enhancement to Visual Paradigm OpenDocs: Customizable Page Width.Previously, OpenDocs utilized a fixed-width layout. While this provided a consistent look, we recognized that different types of content—from dense technical documentation to expansive data tables—require different visual breathing room. With this update, you now have total control over your document’s horizontal canvas.
A conceptual graphic for Visual Paradigm OpenDocs titled "Customizable Page Width." It features three browser window panels illustrating the new layout options: 'Default' showing a centered document with margins, 'Custom' showing a pixel-value input (1200px) with a slider, and 'Full' showing content expanding to the edges of the window.

Why Flexible Page Width Matters

As a leading knowledge management tool, OpenDocs is designed to house a variety of data formats. By allowing users to adjust the page width, you can:

  • Maximize Screen Real Estate: Use the “Full” width setting to display large diagrams or complex spreadsheets without horizontal scrolling.
  • Improve Readability: Use “Default” or “Custom” widths to maintain optimal line lengths for long-form text, reducing eye strain for your readers.
  • Professional Presentation: Tailor the layout to match your brand’s specific style or the specific needs of your project.

How to Adjust Your Page Width

Setting up your ideal layout is simple and can be done on a page-by-page basis. Follow these three steps to customize your view:

  1. Edit your page: Open the specific document or page you wish to adjust within the editor.
  2. Access Settings: Click on the Setting icon located at the top navigation bar.
  3. Choose Your Width: Under the Width Setting section, select from one of three powerful options:
    • Default: The standard, centered layout optimized for general reading.
    • Full: Expands the content to fit the full available width of the browser window.
    • Custom: Enter a specific pixel value to achieve a precise, tailored page width.
