Make code snippets expandable

Post by serengeor »

Hi there,
I have a suggestion for code snippet boxes. I don't know if it is possible for you to integrate something like this easily, but I'm sure it would be useful to have.
The problem with current snippet boxes is that when you have lots of code in them they are just a bit too small and it is hard to read the code users post.
Possible solutions:
a) Add a button which would let user expand it.
b) Increase max size at least to 400px (seemed close enough when I edited the style sheet property in google chrome), but maybe not everyone will like it that big (monitor problems, etc.?)
c) ...

You could switch to SubSilver2 style, there code-snippets are as large as they can be.

Yeah, that should work, though I liked using the new style better.
Edit: I just wrote a chrome extension for myself to change the max height of code box. If anyone needs it, just ask (before it gets lost).
