Here's a little tip for gaining even
more screen real estate for drawing.
AutoCAD now allows you to use the CTRL+0 toggle to hide
your toolbars. This is a great option if you use keyboard shortcuts
most of the time and the toggle is listed in the View menu pull-down as
Clean Screen.
What is not so evident, in the
AutoCAD documentation, is the ability to hide the Model and Layout tabs.
First, go to the Options dialogue box by right-clicking on the command line
and picking Options from the bottom of the pop-up list. Now, go to the
display tab and in the Layout elements area, un-check the Display Layout and
Model tabs check box. Pick the OK button to return to your AutoCAD
interface without Model and Layout tabs!
Savvy users can use the TILEMODE
variable to go from one space to the other. (1) for Model space and
(0) for Paperspace. The MODEL command will switch you from Paperspace
to Model space.
If you do little of your work in
the layout tabs, this interface is for you. A workspace or profile can
be saved with or without these tabs showing if you need to use the tabs
occasionally. The Workspace option would be a lot quicker than opening
the Options dialogue box to re-set the tabs to show again or to change a
saved profile.
