How can I adjust the white space when data has different lengths? I can’t find the “fit contents” or “fill container” settings anywhere? My data looks like this:

Hi @kerry3.14159wy0wzf, welcome to Thunkable! 🎉

To see these options, you will need to use the [Layout component](https://docs.thunkable.com/app-design/ui-components/basic-components/layout). To make it adapt to the device width/height, set the width of the Layout width is 375px, the height 667px, the Resize Mode to “Stretch”, activate scrollable and the size of the components inside the layout to “Fit contents”.
