Adjust the editor to perfectly match your blog layout

The one problem with the full-screen editor? It’s way too wide.

To change the width:

• Press CTRL and – to make it narrower.
• Press CTRL and + to make it wider.

Tip: If your cursor is blinking inside the headline or the body, the keyboard shortcut won’t work. Click outside the editor, into the whitespace in the margins, then try the shortcut again.
If you shrink the width to match your blog layout, you’ll get a better sense of how your writing will actually look on the page.

To get things lining up just right, open the post preview in a new tab and compare the editor view to the post preview, side-by-side. Then adjust the editor width until the lines break at the same point as the preview.
