Hi there,

I started adding some documentation to my project, ouch Wink, and I noticied the editing is a bit more painful due to the tiny size of the textare where you can edit the text, and that implies lots of scrolling. Compared to the "noise" of the page, the textare is quite small.

That can be a good size for forum messages, which tend to be quite small, but wiki pages tend to be much bigger, and wiki format + scrolling means tons of time wasted looking for what you want to change.

S!

In Google Chrome you can change the size of text area dragging the right lower corner of it. Safari 4 and 3 afair has this feature also. Just a workaround, but it works. Unless you use Linux than I haven't check if any of its browser can do it.

Cheers

At the bottom of both the edit window and the preview window, you can drag the bottom edge down to make the windows as large as you like. They are not static in size.

Cool, I have not noticied the "slider" at the bottom.

Thanks,

I've got confused. So is it a browser or text area feature?

It's the textarea. Shouldn't matter what browser you are using.
