VIsual Studio 2010, easily maximize/minimize editor?

Is there an easy way to maximize and minimize/restore an editor in Visual Studio ?

To demonstrate, I'm looking for what Eclipse has:

Normal Layout:

Eclipse Standard

Hit a key combo and you get this (This seems somewhat like Windows->AutoHide all in VS2010)

Maximized Editor Eclipse Maximized Editor

Now, another key combo , and you get back to the Normal Layout. That's the important thing(Windows->AutoHide all in Visual Studio just leaves windows around, not allowing you to quickly switch back and forth.)

Is there anything like this in VS2010 ?

I do not think there is a keyboard shortcut for this but if you ctrl+click on the window tab you should be able to maximize code window within IDE instead of full screen. This will be equivalent functionality to Eclipse ctrl+m shortcut.

View/FullScreen (Shift+Alt+Enter here) will make the editor window use the whole screen. That might be a bit more than what you asked for, but then the same keyboard shortcut will reverse this again, so it's quite easy.

Alt-Shift-Enter makes the editor full screen and enlarges it. Is this what you wanted?
