I’m working with the Sense theme and have a slideshow. I can’t figure out how to adjust the width of the text container that holds the heading, subheading, and button. In the image below, I’ve highlighted in red the area of the container that I want to eliminate by reducing the width of the container.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I would do this? Thanks you.

Add This Css In your edit code > base.css File

@media screen and (min-width:767px) {
    .banner__box {
        min-width: 30rem !important;
        padding-right: 0 !important;
    }
    .slideshow__text>* {
        max-width: 100% !important;
    }
}

This solution worked perfectly. Thank you!
