        You can add to your custom.css or main.css:

        body {
                  margin: 60px;
                  position: absolute;
                  height: calc(100% - 120px);
                  width: calc(100% - 120px);
        }
        

        Play around with the settings to match your display.

          I assume you’re talking about the black border around the display, it’s usually caused by the overscan setting being on…
