No, but instead it actually re-sizes as you type now. 🙂
See https://wordpress.org/news/2014/09/benny/ for more details.
Fine for writers, but as an editor I want to see the post and Editorial comments in the same screen.
What plugin are you using for the editorial comments?
Ok, I recommend asking at http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/edit-flow
WordPress now has an auto-expanding editor (for the past few months in publicly available Beta builds), so that’s something that I’m sure they have thought of or at least have a plan for.
Yes Jerry. BIG problem for me as well. Every Sunday I do “Sunday Cartoons,” and I separate the main subjects over the past week by a list of subjects. So, for example, if ISIS is the main subject I will put “ISIS” as follows, but longer:
ISIS
ISIS
ISIS
ISIS
etc.
etc.
[and then my images for that subject]
If Mrs. Clinton says she is poor and the editorial cartoons pick up on it, I will add in “HILLARY” as a topic in order to quickly find the topic and post the cartoon from my “Faster Insert” image that I can show at the same time I am scrolling through my topics.
ISIS
ISIS
ISIS
ISIS
etc.
etc.
[and then my images for that subject]
HILLARY
HALLARY
HILLARY
HILLARY
etc.
etc.
[and then my images for that subject]
I will have about 5 separate cartoon topics before having my “MISC” section. So my posts are really long. Here is an example of the finished product from last week: http://religiopoliticaltalk.com/no-strategy-toons/
I cannot control my image insert being in the same screen as my editing box in my window for easy editing. Horrible. I mean this comment box has a sizer tab in the lower right… Word Press cannot?
Bad thinking/design on this. Not taking into account bloggers or others who are the lions share of Word Press… must be great for store fronts… but not for high information posting.
BAM! RESOLVED. “Screen Options” upper right. Uncheck the “Expand editor to match window height.” (Pic linked below)

It turns out they thought of us old schoolers. I take back any “mean thing” I said above.
🙂
I would agree with this, I like to edit and move stuff around after typing. I have to hit a fiddly little arrow to see where I want to cut and paste stuff.
Why the change? It’s important to see at least some of the stuff you have below when making edits.
UPDATE! Must have been some cache problem after the update????
Seems ok now?
Thank you, Papagiorgio200
Thanks for sharing your solution!
