When creating a new dashboard if I drag the right edge to the side of the screen it locks to the edge. When opening that dashboard on a larger screen it opens fully extended to the horizontal edge. I've tried using the same technique to expand vertically, but it doesn't work the same as the horizontal. How do I get a dashboard to expand vertically to the height of available space like it does horizontally?

Hey @snowboardcto, this isn't currently possible. Dashboards currently scroll vertically based on the configuration of the grid, and the behavior which you're looking for ins't possible. I'd suggest opening up a [feature request](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Feature_request.md) to add this functionality.
