I have noticed that column widths are not all the same on a page. See image below. The Group of 4 columns has wider columns than the Group having 2 columns. Does anyone have an answer as to why this is and is there a way to get round the issue?
Dashboard 2 v1.28
MS Edge
Default Theme
Widgets are ui-template nodes with a CSS width of 70px for button
Can you export and paste here one widget from each group please?
Also, check the open issues on the dashboard's GitHub page, I seem to remember something about ui-template's width.
The widgets are all the same

The ui-template nodes are all the same width, (as checked with the browser developer tools) it is the columns that vary
Please supply the export as requested. That will include all the group page and theme settings so we can see if we see the same issue. Also include any relevant css templates you have
It's OK, I see what you mean. There seems to be a fundamental error in the maths somewhere. This example with four buttons (1x1) across a group that is four wide, and two buttons across a group that is two wide shows the problem.
It can be seen that the buttons in the two groups are not the same size. I suspect the problem is that in the 4x1 group there are four buttons and and 5 gaps (including the edges), whereas in the 2x1 group there are two buttons and three gaps. I think the border at the edges should only be half the width of the inter-button borders, then there would be a total of four gaps and two gaps respectively, so they will fit correctly into a group that is half the width.
I have raised an issue for this Widget size varies with group width · Issue #1891 · FlowFuse/node-red-dashboard · GitHub
