AutoCad 2012 is the primary copy used, however I have installed 2015 on a laptopfor review.Main problem is the top drop down menu has changed, can 2015 be customized using the 2012 menu?

You're referring to the Menu Bar?

YesFile Edit View Insert Format Tools Etc.The 2015 version has this whole new look from 2012 Drop Down Menu'sIs there a way to customize 2015 menu's?

I don't recall there being that much of a change.  At the most it will take you a day to get used to any changes then you won't even notice.  Time to move on.I'm sure there is a way to customize the drop down menus.  The information should be available through your Help file.

Found it!!!Took approx. 3 seconds to minimize & just get back to a good ole fashion menu barThe menu bar is default in 2012 & only requires minimizing in 2015 version

By the way, this also gets the good ole menu back in 2015 Inventor, Word & ExcelFinally have got alot more working area to the screen

So this really wasn't about the fact the menu bar had changed it was that you didn't see the menu bar and got worried AutoDesk had eliminated it?
