Ability to temporarily maximise widgets into full screen

[Chris Barlow]

As a user, I'd like the ability to be able to maximise widgets into a temporary full screen window which I can then dismiss.

So that, I can see expand the widget to see greater detail when required.

Examples

• Greater fidelity on a graph axis.
• Show all issues if list is truncated for dashboard display.

As a further enhancement, maximising a widget could reveal a panel with greater detail. Another API call to the job possibly. High level thoughts, onInit, onData, onMaximise job / widget methods.

Hi Chris,

The widget could probably respond to a "double click event" and apply some styles like:

    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    z-index: 1000;

Using an animation while resizing would be nice. Double clicking or pressing ESC would resize it down to its original size.

You should be able to wire those onResize events to the widget then those actions get triggered.

What do you think?
