CKEditor V3 - Editor Sizing Questions

I have two questions related to setting the size of the editor window using CKEditor v3 b2.

Firstly, is there a way to set the size (height & width) of the editor (textarea) as I know in the 2.x version there was some configuration settings that could be used within the javascript init code.

Secondly, I don't see a button (screen icon) for the 'Maximize screen size' option in v3 (i know this is available in v2); has this feature gone away?

Regards,
Michael

I think this will work:
(The editor replaces a TextArea/Div in the html called txtBody)

ed = CKEDITOR.replace("txtBody",
{
height:"291", width:"400"
});

The max. button is def there in the nightly build version I know.

The button was called 'FitWindow' in the FCKEditor. It is now 'Maximize'

edit: I didn't see you are using CKeditor. My reply related to FCKeditor; but it may still be relevant.

You can just overwrite the size with simple CSS. Don't forget !important - it's, er, important.

.cke_contents {
height: 500px !important;
}

Re: CKEditor V3 - Editor Sizing Questions

Thank you for that post, I was trying to figure out how to resize this for several hours, I'm a php programmer, don't work on the GUI end very often.
