Full screen Ace editor

Question

I'm trying to make my ace editor go full screen mode, just like youtube has the possibility to make it's videos full screen.

Does anyone have an idea of how to do this?

Answer 1

You need to resize editor.container to cover the whole page and call editor.resize().
something like this

Answer 2

To enter real fullscreen mode like youtube use editor.container.webkitRequestFullscreen() see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/API/DOM/Using_full_screen_mode Unfortunately in fullscreen mode browser captures esc key, so this won't be usable with multiple selections.
