You only need to change the Sidebar Breakpoint. ... But if your sidebar is 
already "scrunched", than this is the right behaviour. .. Which resolution 
does your laptop have? ... The GIF uses 1920 x 634 ... So it's not full-hd 
width.

As I wrote may be 800px as default story-river. ...

This is easy to change in the ControlPanel : Appearance : Theme Tweaks - 
settings. ... The Storywidth and the Sidebar Breakpoint settings can be 
adjusted.

experiment with them.

This is the Centralised theme. .. There is no problem to switch back to 
Snowwhite as shown in the GIF. ... At the moment it isn't possible to have
