Breakpoints
Oxygen ships with five breakpoints, and most sites never need another one. When you do
— a very small phone, a wide desktop, a kiosk — you add it here. Open the builder,
click the Oxygen logo in the top-left corner, choose Preferences, then the
Breakpoints tab.
Breakpoints are stored site-wide, so one you add is there for everyone editing the
site. Nothing is applied until you click Save Breakpoints.
The built-in breakpoints
| Breakpoint | Applies at | Preview width |
|---|---|---|
| Desktop | all widths | 100% |
| Tablet Landscape | 1119px and below | 1024px |
| Tablet Portrait | 1023px and below | 768px |
| Phone Landscape | 767px and below | 480px |
| Phone Portrait | 479px and below | 400px |
Desktop is the base: styles you set there apply everywhere, and each narrower
breakpoint overrides what it inherits. These five can't be edited or removed — this tab
only manages the ones you add.
Add a breakpoint
- Click Add Breakpoint, give it a name — this is the label you'll see in the
breakpoint switcher — and click Add. - The new breakpoint appears with Click to set min and max widths. Click it to
open the editor. - Fill in Maximum width, Minimum width, or both. Oxygen builds the media query
from whatever you give it, and shows you the result. One field is enough: a maximum
alone gives@media (max-width: …), a minimum alone gives@media (min-width: …),
and both together give a range. - Set Default Preview Width — the canvas width the builder switches to when you
select this breakpoint. Leave it at100%to fill the canvas, or choosecustomand
enter a width in pixels. Oxygen pre-fills the custom field with your maximum width;
250px is the smallest it accepts. - Click Save to close the editor, then Save Breakpoints.

Your breakpoint is then in the breakpoint switcher at the top of the builder, after the
built-in ones and marked with a star.

Switch to it and style as usual — a custom breakpoint behaves like a built-in one, and
the CSS Oxygen writes for it goes inside the media query shown in the editor.
Editing and deleting
Click a breakpoint's media query to reopen the editor — or use the pencil icon ,
first of the two buttons on the right-hand end of the breakpoint's row. The trash
icon beside it deletes the breakpoint. Both need Save Breakpoints
afterwards.
Deleting is worth pausing over: the styles you set at a breakpoint belong to it, so
removing the breakpoint removes them. Oxygen asks you to confirm, and says so.
Where custom breakpoints don't appear
A few element settings take a breakpoint as their value rather than being set per
breakpoint — "stack below this breakpoint", for instance. Those dropdowns list only the
five built-in breakpoints.
To include your custom ones, turn on Include Custom Breakpoints in Breakpoint
Dropdowns in UI Settings. Limitations apply, and the setting links
to them; some controls also opt out individually and keep showing the built-in list
either way.
