Documentation problem

Here is how the DataFrame looks in v1.5.0 documentation:

Here is how it looked in v1.4.4 documentation:

Suggested fix for documentation

It seems that pydata-sphinx-theme.css is applying width: fit-content; to all tables. This should be overridden for this wide table.

This seems to be related to #48285

Let me handle this.

I have a question. Where can I find the document file in the repository? I can not find it in docs directory. Thanks.

It seems like the whole notebook is mishandled, not just set_sticky.

[WooilKim]

@attack68 Thanks. I agree.

@attack68 I'm in hard time finding the css "fit-content". I think it is not in the style.ipynb file. Can you give me an advice which file should I look into? Thanks.

FWIW I have detected that if one removes the width: fit-content; CSS attribute value pair from the default pydata-sphinx-theme.css then this page all works as previously. The previous 1.4.x pydata-sphinx-theme.css did not seem to have this width value set.

An alternative solution to avoid tampering with the global pydata-sphinx-theme might be to try to encode an overwrite specifically on the userguide ipynb page. But I don't know how to do either of these at present
