pages setup jitters each time I refresh

I am setting up a website.  I am working on the pages module.  The pages jitter each time I refresh after changing an element. I can stop the jittering by resizing the window on my desktop but it takes a bit of experimenting to do that.  Nothing seems to be repeatable to stop the jittering.  I am certain that the program is not supposed to jitter in the first place.  I am working on a 27" iMac in the latest OS.

Thanks for the help.

Re: pages setup jitters each time I refresh

Thanks Rob.  That gave me the clue although obviously I am using a large monitor (27").  I had the page width set at Auto as I thought it would give me the largest page when viewing from a large monitor and that would be scaled to smaller monitors as needed.    I set the width to fixed at 1140 and it stabilized.  Should I build the site at 1140 pixels and then set it at auto when I upload to my server?

Re: pages setup jitters each time I refresh

Auto will spread the page contents across the width of the viewers browser window. If you want that set it to auto. If you want to control the width of your page (or sections of the page) then set it to a fixed number.

this: http://ce3wiki.theturninggate.net/doku. … _container
and this: http://ce3wiki.theturninggate.net/doku. … core_width
can better explain things.
