Description

I use the windows version marktext with 27' 4K monitor.

After I open a markdown file, It often use part of screen, and most of the screen is blank, I had to scroll up and down when I look a long article. I thins it should display base on the requirement, such as: screen width, size of paper(A3 A4 ...), or customer can design the width, or I can split the screen to multi-page.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the Windows version with a long Markdown file on a 27-inch 4K monitor, then trace the editor layout that leaves most of the screen blank. Compare screen-width, paper-size, custom-width, and multi-page split ideas before narrowing the scope. Done should mean long articles use the available display more effectively without the reported excessive scrolling.
