Themes that adjust for screen size
-
That’s cool. I wasn’t sure how it worked. I suppose the theme would have to use JavaScript to determine available screen size, and then some PHP to set up, say, a second column. Maybe doable? I don’t know if themes use that. Otherwise, it would have to be added to the WP.com code in general. Perhaps as a checkbox in the Apperance > Extras page, that would read, “Display second column of content on widescreen monitors”. Then any theme could work with that feature, if they wanted to. Hope you’re well. :-)

I am well, and I hope you are also.
Yeah, it would require javascript, and the system would have to poll the browser on a regular basis in case the user narrowed or widened their browser window.
All wordpress themes are written in PHP by the way.
Even with a check box under appearance > extras, there would need to be styling done in each theme to support it. In some themes it might be pretty easy, but in a number of them I’ve customized in the past, it would basically require a complete redesign.
Still, capabilities such as this are around the corner.
