Title:
  Review block dimensions and layout in Gridstack

Status in Mahara:
  Triaged

Bug description:

  osnabrueck.de?via=matrix.org&via=chat.virtuos.uni-osnabrueck.de :

  On the large screen of my laptop, I create a page in Mahara and place two 
blocks horizontally next to each other: a text on the left, an image next to it.
  If I now view this page with my smartphone, the blocks are displayed below 
each other. This is not a problem.

  Now I create a block on my smartphone between the two already existing blocks.
  When I view the page later on the large screen of my laptop, the layout of 
the page has changed. All three blocks are now stacked vertically. The original 
two blocks are now no longer horizontally next to each other.

  Confirmed: This is the current behaviour: When one goes to mobile and
  a block is added or changed, the dimensions and positioning of blocks
  are updated, resulting in the behaviour that you are seeing. We will
  have a chat to discuss if we can mitigate that.

  learnOPENtechBECK had a somewhat similar enquiry a little while ago
  because the order of the blocks may also change. So we should look
  into those two things at the same time.

  In Mahara 23.04, the default width will change to 12 columns (of
  Bootstrap grid), i.e. full width, which will mitigate odd looking
  portfolios when someone uses a mobile device primarily. However, it
  won't resolve the issue you brought up when you place blocks next to
  each other. We'll still need to deal with that in a better way.

  One potential solution that Robert came up with was to record the
  desktop dimensions (and positions) and the mobile ones separately.
  We'd still need to look how that affects the placement of new blocks
  and the order of blocks. A bit complex with the grid being able to be
  changed a fair bit also in a tablet view etc.

  We may in the first instance also need to upgrade to the latest
  Gridstack (it's moved quite quickly) as some of those issues may have
  been resolved natively and we'll have to check how our customisations
  affect the behaviour you are seeing.
