Brilliant! Thank you for this snippet!

I changed my Topic Body as follows (by adding to my CSS):

```
.topic-body {
  min-width: 80%;
}

```

After switching to 80%, I noticed that the Topic Timeline scrunches over the Topic Body starting at 1260px, until the time when it naturally disappears for mobile (maybe 800px?)

So I added this little snippet to my CSS to remove the timeline when the screen size shrinks below 1260px…

```
@media screen and (max-width: 1260px) {
  .topic-timeline {
    display: none;
  }
}

```

Works like a charm now!
