Why does Quartz allow for their menu bar to resize for any window size but prevent the article pane from doing the same thing? I get large grey space on the right side of any story that I read on a large-enough monitor.
I read a proposal today for bp;dr (behind paywall, didn't read). Can we have an acronym for "fucked up zoom on my ipad"/"doesnt even render with ghostery enabled"/"stupid marketing modals render it unviewable"/etc?
Their article pane resizes to an extent, but I assume it stops expanding after a certain size because they don't want to exceed an optimal width for readability [1].
Without being able to see it on your monitor, can't tell for sure.
Right, but couldn't they expand the pane but leave the text at the same ratio? The way it is now, the right-hand scrollbar leaves the right side of the window[1], which is kind of weird. Adding whitespace on the sides might be a better way to achieve the same goal.
It is better than Wired's mobile format...where they let you use the full screen to scroll, but as soon as you stop scrolling and start reading, they pop up their logo bar in front of the text you are reading.
