I know there are multiple topics talking about this, but i am interested in making a **single** topic (which has a larger/wider table and can be seen here: [Passwords, credentials and environment variables - How-to - Duplicacy Forum](https://forum.duplicacy.com/t/passwords-credentials-and-environment-variables/1094)) a little bit wider, at least on the desktop view.

I intend to create a theme component for this, but i don’t know how to target that specific post.

Yes, i do imagine it will look ugly with only 1 post. Maybe i will have to increase the width of the whole topic, but nothing more than that.

I also know that i could merge table columns:

but let’s be honest, that just doesn’t look as good as having the table with 4 columns.

### Solution:

It’s not as easy as i hoped, as you can see in post 3, but here’s what i did so far:

- widen it (the post) a little bit
- decrease font for the table
- move everything a bit to the left

Not beautiful but not that ugly either.  
I’m more than happy to get a better/cleaner alternative. eg. i would really like to be able to move the timeline scrollbar more to the right and not decrease table font size, but oh well `:-s`.

```css
section[data-topic-id="1094"] .row {
  // background-color: yellow;

  margin-left: -100px;
  
  .md-table {
     // background-color: pink;
     font-size: 80%;
  }
  
  .topic-body {
    width: 80%;
   }
}

// .timeline-container {
// background: yellow;
// left: 360px;
// }

```
