Research direction

The payload names only the Annotate view and an existing settings=wide option that caps document width at about 1280px. Start by finding where that width cap and the wide setting are defined in the TypeScript frontend, and check how the Annotate view applies them to the document. Done when a user can let the document fill the full window width, either by default or through a new unlimited option, while the current default layout stays the same. The issue does not say whether to remove the cap or add an option, so confirm that with a maintainer first.

Description

What happened?

I have 4k screen and the document I'm reviewing has really wide tables.
Instead of limiting the width with 1280px, let document fill the whole width so I don't scroll it horizontally. That would be really useful. Currently it uses only center half of my screen (with settings=wide), increasing a font make it looking really weird.
