Has post display width been changed?

See https://community.plus.net/t5/Plusnet-Feedback/No-service-from-July-16th/m-p/1461282#M77844

I have just noticed that the right hand edge of my macro code content is being trimmed.

In the post create / edit box all looks fine - as it always has done, but the preview window (and topic view) shows the right hand edge of the box trimmed.

Has the skin wrinkled?

Nope, nothing has changed. The shadow will not go outside the container width that's all.

Jack,

In normal view, the only width control is in the messageBodySimpleDisplay_4 <div> where .lia-quilt-coloum-24 creates a width value (of 775.5 px on my screen). My macro content just goes-with-the-flow.

Is there any possibility that in the process of squeezing out white-space, padding in any of the parent containers was removed?

Clearly I can fix this for new uses of the macro by adding a right hand margin ... if I have to!

The box-shadow CSS property does not comply with conventional CSS box-model and is displayed outside of the element. If the parent container meets the edge of your macro container that has a shadow applied to it, its going to be cut off as both edges are touching and the parent container will not display anything outside of it. The only thing I can suggest is either:

Adjust the box-shadow to only appear at the bottom edge of the element
Remove the box-shadow CSS
Change the width of your macro to a slightly smaller size.
Apply 13px margin to the right side of the element to accomodate the shadow width (this is what I would do).
