    Hello,

    It appears that Metro Pro's gutter between the main content and sidebar is less than the original Metro child theme. How does one adjust this, please?

    Thanks,
    Doug

    Near line 471 of your stylesheet is the width of the main content area (currently 700px). Make it less and the size of the gutter will increase.

    You'll want to do similar to the 580px entry near line 1608, which takes over after the first responsive breakpoint. Subsequent breaks will put the sidebar below the main content so it won't matter.

    Yup. Good advice. I've done this on a site or two, as well.
