How to stop image scaling with browser window size?

Question

I have an old page using the old editor experience. It had a few lines where I'd placed small images then a line of text. Hoping to replicate this in a new page using the new editor, but now I find the image scales when the user changes their browser window size, putting it totally out of scale with the text. How do I ensure it retains a fixed size? The scaling doesn't even seem sensible - sometimes when the browser window is small the image suddenly becomes massive, perhaps because of some sort of page reflow thing.

Thanks @Daniel Eads . I see that was opened two years ago and is still only in a "gathering interest" status, so I don't hold out much hope for it. I'll just remove the images for now.

Hi @Andrew McDonald ,

The new editor maintains a percentage-based width when the browser window is resized. This can have the effect of making the text move around the image or not strictly paired with words above or below the image.

There is an open feature request to have images size by pixels rather than percentages. You can watch and vote on that request here: CONFCLOUD-67554

Cheers,
Daniel

Thanks Huwen, but I'm not sure that's the case. I just added the images fresh to the new page, not copied from another.

I'm not sure what my sysadmins will do about it, as they have no Confluence expertise themselves. It just seems like a bug in the "new editor experience"?
