NetBox version

v3.7.3

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

The v3 UI currently renders all views using the full screen width. On very wide viewports, this can result in unnatural layout using too much horizontal whitespace for object detail views. Conversely, the new v4.0 UI in development limits all views to a maximum width; this should be extended for list views which typically benefit from the additional horizontal space.

Use case

Utilizing different maximum content widths depending on the context provides better UX.

Database changes

None

External dependencies

None

I ended up just using full width containers for all views for consistency.
