Page/block width

  • I am an experienced coder and and struggling to learn WordPress. I have a hugely newbie question. I searched in the documentation for an answer and it directed me to the forum.

    How do I set a page width in WordPress? How do I set a block width? I think the latter has to do with the former, but I couldn’t find a settings for setting page width. A google query said click on the block and set the width by choosing columns. I found where to do that when starting a block but not sure how to change it and choosing columns doesn’t set the width I presume this is determined by the page width, which I can’t figure out how to set, so…?.

    I know how to do this in CSS. WordPress, it’s a bit of a mystery.

    FYI, I chose the 2022 theme and am working within that.

    Thanks,
