 * Are you referring to your posts/pages editor or your Appearance->Editor?
 * If referring to your Posts/Pages editor, the icon for full-screen is now all 
   the way on the right, under the word “text” where you choose between visual/text
   editor.

 * Yes, you’re referring to your posts/pages editor, so find the icon that looks
   like an “X” _all_ the way on the right side of your page under the words “visuell/
   text”. Click it and boom!, you’re in full-screen mode.

 * If you want a full-screen distraction-free writing area without seeing anything
   else, click on the “X” [here](http://prntscr.com/3jkeo4).
 * If you want to see the toolbox, etc while you are working, I think what you’re
   looking for is the “text” tab on the right side of your post. It looks like you’re
   working in the “visuell” editor. Choose “text” (next to “visuell” and above the“
   X” icon I mentioned).

 * No, you dont understand me. I want to use the hole space of the editor. I know
   about the “X” but this isnt the solution, because its small too.

 * Right, so follow the directions in the 2nd paragraph above. Above the “X”, click
   on “text” editor instead of the “visuell” editor. Is that what you’re describing?

 * Great. However, keep in mind that there was no ‘problem’ with the visual editor
   only displaying in half of the available space. It always look like that.
 * The two editors are distinctly different. The Visuell editor is the default editor.
   The Text editor doesn’t just use more of the editor area, it allows you to write
   your posts in HTML. Although it is easy to switch between the two, sometimes 
   HTML entities can get lost going back and forth.
 * Read up on the differences between the two [here](http://make.wordpress.org/support/user-manual/content/editors/)
