Hi All, Has anybody experienced the following - I have checked all columns and rows and they seem to be operating fine, so I think the error is occurring because of the new Landscape/Portrait screen layout options On portait my screen produces a large gap prior to the first row ![IMG_38A8687DB95F-1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/7/3/7321459badfa4ea12ee6cc3b13d65fedfadbe954.jpeg) But when it is landscape mode it looks correct and there is no significant gap ![IMG_9D819AE280D1-1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/e/8/e876f8560d923d5770a48fdea5b0536ddae34149.jpeg) Thanks!

Hi Jacob , We’ve made a couple of updates to the screen orientation since this post (and we have a few more planned for the coming weeks ahead) and we’ve also added additional [status bar](https://docs.thunkable.com/screen#status-bar-theme) properties which might help you here too. Can you let us know if either of those works for you? Thanks. ---
