googleapps shortcode: specify width?

    Is it possible to specify the width to be taken up by an embedded google doc when using the googleapps shortcode? I have Coraline & can specify a full page template, and I'd like to be able to take advantage of that extra space, but the default width seems to anticipate a narrower column. There's a scrollbar at the bottom, but I hate horizontal scrollbars if I can avoid them.

    Thanks!

    Hi. Have you tried changing the width and height in the iframe code?
    <iframe ... width="CHANGE HERE" height="CHANGE HERE"></iframe>

    I'll read that.

    I didn't use the iframe code, since I was aware that it's stripped, but I hadn't known that the [googleapps] shortcode was automatically inserted. I did try specifying the width w/in the bit that I kept inside the shortcode, but that didn't work. I'll try it the other way & see what happens.

    I changed some of the things about the spreadsheet so that there's little or no scrolling, depending on the browser it's viewed in, but for future us, it'd be nice to know how/if the width (and height) can be specified.

    Thanks for the suggestions! :) When I try it, I'll let you know the results.
