When setting a large Horizontal Gap in Theme for PC the same Gap is used for Tablet and Mobile. Tablet and Mobile setting for Horizintal Gap this is ignored. (at least in Preview for these devices)

@Anders could you give more detail about where exactly you’re trying to set this? There’s quite a few gap settings so we’d need to know exactly which one you’re trying to set.

Sure. It’s when I for Desktop set a large Horizontal Gap for the Card “Solid” in my Theme. Then i click Tablet icon upper left, setting small Horiz Gap for Tablet and then also for Mobile.

Right I see what you mean now.

It’s actually setting the value fine but then it’s not overriding the ‘desktop’ CSS because of [CSS specificity rules](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Guides/Cascade/Specificity).

I’ve logged a bug for this.

Is there any way to get an indication of when this (or any other reported bug) is expected to be fixed? This particular issue is especially frustrating, as it prevents us from launching the course.

@Anders as a general rule we don’t give specific dates for anything but if you have an issue like this and it is holding you up, let us know - we’re generally amenable to prioritising things\[1\], esp. if it’s a fairly quick/safe fix.
