You can make your own. Look https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio-tips.html — Matter Cat, May 07 '15 at 05:43
You can define on File > Settings > Keymap. Look at the gif in my answer. — Umut ADALI, Nov 22 '17 at 22:04

In Android Studio -> MenuBar -> View -> Enter Full Screen

Though there are other options as well which you might like such as Presentation Mode and Distraction free mode

For maximizing the editor pane Ctrl + Shift+ F12 will work on windows.

You Should also check this reference

Full screen is not mapped to any shortcuts by default. but you can define your own shortcuts. Please check this document.

Hope this will help.

In the Mac version (2.2.3) it IS mapped by default to control + command + F to enter/exit full screen mode. – jk7 Feb 28 '17 at 19:16

Only for Windows: it's not shortcut but kind of it :)

To Enter/Exit Full screen mode

1. Alt + V (will access Menu -> View) 
2. Arrow Up ^
3. Enter

UPDATE: Looks like the same keys work on Ubuntu too :)

It's easy. Press ctrl+alt+s or open File > Settings > Keymap and open Keymaps select box the default one. Below the select box, type full screen in the search box and right click on the result to set your shortcut. That's it.

The best way to do this is with a keyboard macro which combines Hide All Tool Windows with Toggle Full Screen mode.

First you need to assign keyboard short cuts to both these under Settings -> Keymap (Toggle Full Screen mode does not have one, but Hide All Tool Windows is Ctrl + Shift + F12 on my version of Android Studio).

Then record a macro under _Edit -> Macros -> Start Macro Recording_. Name it as something then assign a keymap to it under _Settings -> Keymap_.

Now with just one shortcut you can maximize your code area :)

Kind of offtopic: In Openbox ToggleFullscreen works for every single application, so for Android Studio as well.

Just add:

<keybind key="W-f">
<action name="ToggleFullscreen"/>
</keybind>

to your

~/.config/openbox/rc.xml

Where W is Windows/Mac button on your keyboard.

I found out best way for me was to go to Keymap ctrl + alt + s and make a little control area to keyboard for me:

Hide All Tool Windows ctrl + alt + i
Toggle Full Screen mode ctrl + alt + o
Toggle Distraction Free mode ctrl + alt + p
