Text that appears too small in certain breakpoints
Does your text look too small when viewing your client's site on smaller screens? Using the scale proportionally responsive behavior and the min-max setting, you can ensure your text always looks great on every screen size.

The max-min setting automatically cascades down to smaller breakpoints, so no need to make changes on breakpoints other than desktop.

Misaligned elements across breakpoints
If elements on your section misalign or break their layout when the screen size changes, it’s often due to inconsistent docking or margin settings.
