Using the Refresh theme: I’m trying to align the page content widths to match my section widths, but I can’t seem to figure out where that particular code lives. This is the parameter across all new “pages” and yes, I wish to change it across the entire theme.

See screenshot below - dark red is where I’m trying to get the alignment to go, lilac is the width that I’m trying to get to match. Is this possible or will it mess up any responsive parameters for mobile?

Any suggestions? Thank you!
