how to use bootstrap fixed width layout for 1170px width?

Question

I am creating a Bootstrap Template which is Non-responsive. So the width of the Non-responsive design in Bootstrap is 940px. But the issue here is, I am requested to use the layout width for 1170px only. So I would like to know if there is any provision in Bootstrap for making Non-responsive layouts with 1170px width?

Answer 1

It looks like the older versions of Bootstrap did use 1170px, but it was changed to 940px (Why is the Twitter Bootstrap "fixed" layout NOT fixed?). If you want to use the latest (2.3.1) the best thing to do would be to override .container in your CSS...

.container {
    width:1170px;
}
