How can I prevent an image in a column from shrinking when the browser size is smaller than 1440 px in Webflow?

To prevent an image from shrinking inside a column when the browser width drops below 1440 px, you need to adjust the image’s sizing properties and possibly override the column’s responsive behavior.

1. Set a Fixed or Minimum Image Size

• Select the Image element inside the column.
• In the Style panel, ensure that Width is set to a fixed pixel value (e.g., 600px) or use Min Width to prevent it from shrinking.
• Set Height to Auto to preserve the aspect ratio if only Width is fixed.

2. Disable Image Shrinking with Flexbox (if applicable)

• If your column layout uses Flexbox, set the image’s flex shrink to 0:
• Select the image.
• In the Style panel, under Layout, enable Do not shrink.

3. Set Column Width Appropriately

• Select the column that contains the image.
• Set the column’s Width to fit-content or a fixed pixel value large enough to accommodate the image (e.g., 600px).
• Alternatively, set Min Width on the column to prevent it from becoming too narrow.

4. Use Overflow Scroll or Auto for the Column (Optional)

• If preserving the image size breaks layout on smaller screens, consider enabling horizontal scrolling:
• Select the column or container.
• Set Overflow to Scroll or Auto under the Layout section.
• This allows the image to maintain size without compressing other elements.

5. Create Media Queries for Responsive Adjustments

• In Webflow’s Designer, switch to the Tablet or Mobile viewports.
• If needed, adjust or override the image and column settings specifically for narrower screens.
• You can hide the large image and show a smaller version if appropriate for mobile.

Summary

To prevent an image from shrinking under 1440 px browser width, set a fixed or minimum width, disable flex shrinking, and ensure the column or parent container doesn’t shrink excessively. For full layout control, use responsive breakpoints to manage the image behavior across device sizes.
