bootstrap-ms.less

// Bootstrap Mid-Small - col-ms-* - the missing grid set for Bootstrap3.
//
// This is a hack to fill the gap between 480 and 767 pixels - a missing range
// in the bootstrap responsive grid structure. Use these classes to style pages
// on cellphones when they transition from portrait to landscape.
//
// Contains:
// Columns, Offsets, Pushes, Pulls for the Mid-Small layout
// Visibility classes for the Mid-Small layout
// Redefined visibility classes for the Extra Small layout
//
// See https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/10203 for more info.

@screen-ms-max: (@screen-sm-min - 1);

// Redefined Extra Small max value
@screen-xs-max-new: (@screen-ms-min - 1);

We found that we needed something to cater to both the <768px and <992px screen sizes specifically. Not being too au fait with LESS (more of a SASS man myself), I just copied your file and changed the variables to work with my requirements. If anyone needs this facility themselves, it's here: https://gist.github.com/tadywankenobi/c0a850b64be8d3c77404

Deffo not the most efficient use of code, but it does the trick for me!

@noctivityinc is the above fixed for the problems you were describing about hidden-ms in the issue? I am having some problems with it, namely when I use hidden-xs, during the hidden-ms size where they are visible, they are stacking. For me it's table header or table data elements.

FYI I've published similar code as https://github.com/adjohnson916/bootstrap-grid-ms.
