The following tutorial covers changing the right and left columns width for Text'n'Roll Plone theme on a Plone 4.2 website.
Default left and right column width is 232px. You can change columns width via Diazo theme: Site Setup -> Diazo theme -> Advanced settings tab.
Note: For Diazo Support extension starting with 1.1b1 version, proceed to Site Setup -> Theming -> Advanced Settings tab.
Specify new values for columnonewidth and columntwowidth parameters.
Let's for example enter column one width 200, column two width - 250. Save changes and return to Plone Interface to view them: column one narrowed (from 232 to 200 px), column two widened (from 232 to 250 px).
