 * WP Edit is a fantastic plugin, thank you. Is there a way to get a full screen
   editor? Not distraction free, but actually fullscreen.
 * TinyMCE Advanced allows this, I tried to use both tinymce advanced and WP Edit
   in the hope I would get the TinyMCE menus and WP Edit buttons, but no luck, TinyMCE
   wins and I don’t have the buttons any more.
 * For comparison, here is fullscreen in TinyMCE Advanced: [http://imgur.com/TPxCByHl.png](http://imgur.com/TPxCByHl.png)
   
   Here is disctracton free: [http://imgur.com/gxSQPsDl.png](http://imgur.com/gxSQPsDl.png)…
   except it isn’t distraction free because I had to move my mouse to get the screenshot.
 * I way prefer full screen, it is actually truly distraction free.
 * Thanks!

 * Call off the army, it turns out that `Ctrl-Alt-F` still works.
 * Sorry for the waste of a support request, and thanks for the great plugin.

 * Back to the drawing board. For reasons I cannot figure out, Ctrl/Cmd-Alt-F just
   stopped working.
 * Do you know how I can make TinyMCE actually full screen?

 * Yeah.. this is weird. I’m not seeing full-screen anymore. I do see distraction
   free writing (shift + alt + W)… but that’s different.
 * You say Tinymce Advanced still has the full screen? I wonder if “Awesome-Andrew”
   put in some javascript to make it truly full screen??

 * Is there any update on this issue? I just purchased WP Edit Pro and it too does
   not provide fullscreen support.

 * I just discovered how to provide fullscreen capability within WP Edit (and Edit
   Pro), or at least enough of the functionality to make it worthwhile.
 * Out of the box, WP Edit does not include the TinyMCE “fullscreen” plugin, so 
   you’ll need to add it yourself. Here’s how I did it:
 * The fullscreen plugin is found in either the normal or development versions of
   the TinyMCE plugin found in the download page.
 * Download one of the ZIP packages, then locate the “fullscreen” plugin subdirectory
   from this directory in the package:
 * `tinymce/js/tinymce/plugins`
 * Copy the fullscreen directory into the WP Edit plugin tree:
 * `wp-content/plugins/wp_edit_pro/tmce_plugins`
 * This installs the plugin into WP Edit, but doesn’t make it available on the toolbar,
   although the functionality can be effected (toggled or or off) via a keyboard
   shortcut: `Ctrl-Shift-F`
 * In addition, a new “Fullscreen” menu item is now available in the View menu.
 * Even though the plugin JavaScript shows it adding a button to the menu, no such
   button appears. More debugging is necessary, but at least the keyboard shortcut
   and View menu expose the functionality.
 * Perhaps Josh can help out with the remaining effort to make a toolbar button 
   appear, as in a stock TinyMCE 4 installation?
