What I would like to accomplish is that, allthough i am using a normal container, on bigger screens, col-photo will stretch all the way to the left viewport border, while at the breakpoint of max 990px, it will stretch all the way over 100%. What is the best way to do this? Thank you in advance
Hi Paul. Not sure what I should do without you That is indeed nearly where I’m after. Why I mentioned Bootrap and stretching out of the div is because all of the other content on the page is wrapped in a Bootstrap container/row pair. So I would like to have the text in your example be lined up with the rest of the content on the right. To make this all a bit more visual I added an extra container along with Bootstrap cdn. Hope you understand what I mean. Here is the adjusted layout:

Hi, I’m on a mobile at the moment so can’t test but you should just be able to start the bootstrap code under mine. You don’t need the test stuff at that was just to check for a scroll to see what happens to the fixed image.
I set the text div to be half of the 991px width which should allow it to line up with the rest of the page but you can adjust if you have wider media queries to match.
Hi Paul. Thank you for the reply. Sorry for my ignorance but i don’t understand the last part. What I ment has noting to do with the breakpoint because then your css is working great for that purpose. What I ment on medium to bigger screens the text div is not lining up with the rest of the content on the right. I quess that would be very difficuly because there are so many different screen sizes. Mayby there should be some right margin and padding for text container based on the Bootstrap margin and padding.
Edit: Hi Paul I have been playing around wihth it a bit viewing it on 15" and 17" laptops using Javascript to know the actual size of the Bootstrap col in different viewports and this is where I came up with:
and now it is lining up perfectly. Tomorrow I’m gonna have a look on even bigger screens to see if I maybe need 1 more media query. You helped me a lot. Thanks again
You only have to look at the bootstrap documentation as their breakpoints are listed. You don’t need magic numbers as the max width needed for that text element will simply be half the width of the breakpoint.
Hi Paul. Thanks for the reply and sorry for the late responce, but I had a bad flew for a couple of days. I see what you mean, and that is working indeed. Thanks again
