# Every width, one key away

Cycle a column through preset widths, nudge it wider or narrower, make it full width or center it on the screen.

- **Your presets:** Start with 25, 33, 50, 66 and 75 percent, then add or remove widths in Settings.
- **Fine steps:** Nudge a column wider or narrower by a step you choose.
- **Even it out:** Give every column the focused one's width in one keystroke.

**Scrolling Windows is optional.** It stays off until you turn it on. While it's on, window snapping and automatic window snapshots pause, and restoring a workspace turns it off; the strip saves its own session instead.
