All of the widgets in ArcGIS Online Dashboards have a small icon at the upper right that appears on mouseover and allows a user to expand the widget to full screen temporarily:

This is great UX, particularly for charts that can get cramped on small screens. In Experience Builder only the map has an option allowing a user to expand it to full screen. It would be fantastic if this function could be made a standard component of all Experience Builder widgets.

Echoing the sentiment.   I use the sidebar as a temporary fix, but it's not quite as elegant.

I strongly agree. Without this functionality, Dashboards is much more attractive as this allows lots of elements to be included, but users to expand the one of interest whilst maintaining the overview otherwise.

I am also looking for an option to expand the image widget to full screen. Seems like this should be a built in option for most widgets, not just the map.

I echo all previous comments.  It should be added. Otherwise, a dashboard may be the only option in some circumstances even though the functionality of EB would be a better choice in general for a particular app.

Expanding to full screen would be great for the Editor widget where you have a complicated form and want to enter a lot of attribute data for the selected feature.

This can be accomplished by placing your Widgets inside a Grid Widget and using the Allow Expansion option.
