ParticipantWould appreciate some direction to help speed up my investigating how to size the Front Page Widget elements used in the Digital Pro theme. I've tried somewhat related suggestions found in other posts here but none seemed to hit the selectors i apparently need to hit.
I'm feeding the Front Page 2 widget area with two Genesis- Featured Page widgets, one of which is a Tablepress (a table plugin for those unfamiliar )table. The two widgets display nicely side by side but I'd like to shrink down their height so they dont consume so much of the page. I tried to use the "see More" functionality of the widget customization in the Customizer, but this didn't appear to work as expected as it shrunk down the area to only the page title. (so i guess that would be a secondary question as to what is up with that?)The test site URL is http://www.pmpbootcamp.com/ my primary focus of the moment is resizing the Front Page 2 widget area which is what you see after the header.
I'll probably figure it out eventually, just hoping someone with more experience with the theme can point me the way and save me some time and frustration in looking.
And thankyou in advance!

MemberHi,
I'm not sure if that is what you are talking about but try adjusting the padding in .front-page-2 .widget-wrap
around line 162 of style-front.css

Participantthanks, i'll try that today and see how i fare.
update: well you're right in that does shrink up the space in the top n bottom.
i guess what i want to do is decrease the display size of that area, as the table on the 2nd widget area (the right most side) is pushing it out. That widget is being fed by Genesis Feature Page widget with page content set to display so the table shows up, which is a Tablepress shortcode on the page feeding the widget. If i use the More Text feature of the widget, despite what character limit i enter for it, nothing displays on the page except the "see more" text. so i guess it isn't liking the shortcode or table.
I also tried just using a text widget for that section, using the table shortcode, which works fine other than being able to restrain the section height.
all i can think to do is to slice the table down which will mean more ongoing work as this is a calendar of events.
i played around with changing: .front-page-2 .wrap but that breaks the display flow and contents just overflow on the page.thanks again. i'll keep conjuring up ideas for wrangling the output as i'd like to restrain the height
