We had distraction-free writing alright with WP, so I really don’t see why this Facebook-style redesign of the default editor had to be done.
Thank you guys for rescuing the great “old” editor for all of us!
]]>I preferred the full screen writing over the distraction writing before 4.1. Is there an option or a plugin to restore the full screen writing?
]]>How do I switch it off as I don’t want to see this every time. Thanks.
]]>Any way to get the old DFW back, where the full page was displayed? (I think it was version 4.0?). Is there an “optional” button for this, where we have the option of using the old vs the new?
Will I have to down grade to get that feature back the way it was?
Thanks

]]>However the brilliant TinyMCE Advanced “Context Menu” may provide a workaround because this works in full screen (Distraction Free Writing) mode.
Please add to the Context Menu

]]>Actually TinyMCE launches into WordPress’ Distraction Free Writing environment. This is useless.
Additional note
When I configure TinyMCE Advanced I see a Full Screen button that looks like a CRT Monitor but in WordPress the button looks like WordPress’ own 4 way arrow.

]]>I wrote a long post, clicking frequently on the Save button, using the distraction free writing mode.
I closed the browsers, reopened it, went back to wordpress, and found out that my long post hadn’t been saved. I worked on it the whole morning and I’m sure I clicked on the Save button quite often as I don’t trust the autosave function enough.
What happened?
And is there any way I can recover my job?
The post revisions are useless. There are no traces of my today changes to the post.
I checked an old ticket related to the distraction free writing implementation I believe https://core.trac.www.ads-software.com/ticket/17136
and I found that a tester had what seems to be my same issue, but apparently that was 21 months ago and this was supposed to be fixed.
Could you please help me?
