How do I fix content width?

    I just want to fix the content width of my WP.com site to 1024px. How do I do this? Changing the width settings in Appearance | Editor | Styles | Layout has no effect, I am stuck with 1280px whatever I do there. Entering this into Additional CSS also has no effect:

    .container {
    max-width: 1024px;
    }

    What am I doing wrong?

    @dickwynne Have you tried testing this on a wider screen? It’s possible that the editor is unable to display wider results due to screen width limitations.

    When I tested, increasing the browser window width allowed me to see and test 1024, 1280, and other sizes easily. However, with a narrower window, I couldn’t see any results above 1024. Let me know if this helps!

    Sharing with you two cases:

    1. The editor screen is wider than 1300px
    2. The editor screen is narrower than 1024
    Wider
    Narrower
