Saving Real Estate with Clean Screen - Part 2*Applies to: AutoCAD 2004 and 2005*With the introduction of AutoCAD 2004 can many
new UI features like Tool Palettes, the revised Dockable Container and
old ones like the Screen Menu and Toolbars. Since many of these
things take up room on the screen they decided to introduce a new
command called Clean Screen. This command allows you to reclaim the
maximum amount of usable drawing area as possible by hiding many of
the UI elements temporarily. To me this command is muck more
useful than the ExpressTools command Full Screen, but it is just my
preference. Follow the steps below to turn On/Off the UI
elements..
Step 1 - |
To hide many of the UI elements and turn
Clean Screen Off do one of the following things.
Press the key combination Ctrl+0.
Select Clean Screen from the View pull down.
Type in CleanScreenOn
|
Step 2 - |
To unhide the UI elements and turn Clean
Screen off do one of the following things.
Press the key combination Ctrl+0.
Select Clean Screen from the View pull down.
Type in CleanScreenOff
