Hi everyone, I have been using AutoCAD for many years now and recently with the new versions of AutoCAD there has been a fullscreen feature which has been added. It uses commands of F11 or Ctrl 0 and cleanscreen for functionality.
Although this may have some relevance to certain users I find it very irritating.
When ever I open read only files and move between drawing tabs I have to keep hitting F11 to disable the fullscreen mode.
When I have multiple read only drawings up I have to keep hitting F11 for every tab I change too to exit this damn disaster fullscreen mode.
 
Does anyone have any solutions for completely removing the fullscreen feature completely from AutoCAD.
I have trolled page after page and can't find anything remotely helpful.
 
Craig

Hello crager, I think that you have the answer here in the related tips :
Tip 4767:score 283 https://www.cadforum.cz/cadforum_en/qaID.asp?tip=4767" rel="nofollow - How can I get back from the AutoCAD fullscreen mode (no menu, no titlebar)?
From what I read the command would be Ctrl+9.

Hi Phillipe,
Thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately The fullscreen express tools command is no longer available in AutoCAD 2020.
I was hoping for a more premanent solution of disabling the command and feature completely so it just never occurs.
Seems this problem is registry related as there are no variables or anything to disable it.

Or ask the webmaster at : webmaster@cadstudio.cz IS NOBODY AROUND THE WORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS.
