Nouh Ahmed, below every reply box is a link that says Markdown Cheatsheet and it gives you tips on how to format posts, including code. I went ahead and took care of this one for you by using three ``` to open and close the code block.

With that, I copied your code over to codepen, and it worked. http://codepen.io/kevink/pen/VPzZWG

So I'm not sure without more info why you're not seeing similar results. Make sure you are using B4, the current version, B3 does not have an XL class. You may need to update to the latest version of B4 to see if that fixes it.

Sorry Nouh Ahmed

You're two columns don't add up to 12 at the XL size. You're using col-xl-4 on both divs -- that only adds up to 8. What are you trying to accomplish with this larger breaksize setting (the xl part)?
