It's a small panel on the left of my screen and it feels like I should be able to expand it, or pop it out to be a separate window.
Now we have up to 1000 characters to play with, it feels like the editing window should be more suitable for lengthier musings.
Unless I'm missing some magic button, or a setting somewhere.

@BeAware @Gargron
Thanks for that.
It’s better, but not intuitive.Maybe there should be a button on the main screen to launch it?
It’s also small in comparison to the available real estate.
I mean, it’s the same height as the other one, just wider.
Why not default the height to something bigger.Also - the boxes mimic each other.
Just feels strange and if this is something more people are moving towards, there should be a great experience to encourage writing.
Lose the left-hand margin and focus on writing space.
