Chrome desktop checkbox on mobile (android) phones

I have made my website www.comlogic.nl/test responsive. As a result it is sized to fit on:
- mobile phones portrait (320px)
- mobile phones landscape (568px)
- 15" laptops (1024px)
- large screens (1920px)

My question has to do with the Google Chrome checkbox 'Desktop' which should show a site in 'desktop format'.

It does not do so for my site which i can understand because i have not marked a breakpoint as 'desktop model'.

Can you please explain to me how i need to change my website so Chrome will show my 1024px breakpoint? when i tick the 'Desktop' checkbox?

Regards,
Ken

Most laptops have at least 1920 across - so that would be the 'desktop' version.

Is the 1920 breakpoint the default one in your project? It needs to be.

The largest layout should always be your default. In your case that would be 1920px. You need to fix this first.

As a test I changed the default page to be the largest page but that does not change anything with regards to the 'Desktop' checkbox reaction by Chrome on Android devices.

In more detail (without having made any changes to the www.comlogic.nl/test site)
If on 320 breakpoint, I tick the 'Desktop' checkbox, the 568 breakpoint screen is shown
