User blog comment:Rupert Giles/Prototype for a new article layout/@comment-3123266-20141216152800

I like fluid because I can maximize the content on my huge screen, but if you want fixed width for "more predictable responsive layouts", I suggest using "column-width" CSS property, e.g., User:Hasdi/Sandbox. If you do this, the right rail can go, so RWA and others widgets might be embedded in the article somehow. The buttons on the side is neat, but it eats up horizontal space. All this can be resolved by having horizontal scrolling rather than vertical scrolling, i.e, by imposing fixed height instead of fixed width on the content area in CSS. Later.
