To set the default canvas settings to 1900px in Webflow, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open your project in the Webflow Designer.
  2. In the left sidebar, click on the "Settings" tab (the gear icon).
  3. Under the "Canvas" section, you will see options for width and height.
  4. Click on the dropdown menu next to the "Width" option and select "Custom".
  5. Enter "1900" in the input field next to the "Width" option. The default unit of measurement is pixels (px).
  6. If you want to change the height as well, you can enter the desired value in the input field next to the "Height" option.
  7. Once you have set the desired values, click on the "Save" button at the top right corner of the Designer.

By setting the default canvas width to 1900px, you can ensure that your website will be displayed at that width when you first start designing a page. This can help you design your site with a specific width in mind, allowing you to better control the layout and responsiveness of your elements.

Note: The canvas settings in Webflow only affect the design view of your project. They do not impact the actual published website or its responsiveness on different devices.
