Hello

First experience with DNN4.
I am showing it to my boss.
He asked me why DNN site doesn't use all the screen width
available.
I looked in the site settings but I didn't find anything
Is it possible to set the margins of the site ?

Thanks in advance
Bye
Nicola

this depends on the skin you use. For variations on the default skin go to site settings and choose an appropriate skin.

Thanks I will try.
Is it also possible to set the relative width of the various panes ?
For example:
set the left pane to 40%, the content to 20 and the right .and so on
(as you do with html frames)

I am also facing the same problem. In resolutions higher than 1024x768 the screen elements (textbox etc..) loose the alignment and the screen design becomes clumsy.

What I should do in the skin? Or I have to replace the entire skin with a different one? Is there any fixed skin available - that just fixes controls to a resolution say 1024x768?

Think of a skin as a standard HTML page with little widgets (a menu, a login control, etc.) placed in them, and one or more larger panes for holding some rectangular containers or modules. The skin designer has COMPLETE control over the layout.

So a good skin designer can create a skin that can handle many different screen resolutions. Look at the DotNetNuke.com site , or http://skinergy.speerio.net/ for a free wonderful skin to start with. Click on the first 3 icons at the very top of the DotNetNuke pages to see how flexible it is. They set the panes for a screen width of ~750, ~975 pixels and 100%. This last one looks fine on a large (1920x1200) screen.

Note that creating XHTML & CSS skins is quite tough currently since many modules use HTML tables and other techniques that are out of your hands and may break XHTML and CSS based layouts - though this should get worked on in the future.
