Enter full screen mode

 
 
 

Full screen mode maximizes Maya's workspace, making Maya easier to use on smaller screens. When full screen mode is enabled, the title bar, menu bar, and dock are hidden.

NoteFull screen mode is only available if you are running Maya on OS X version 10.7 or later.

To enter full screen mode

  1. In Maya, do one of the following:
    • Select Maya > Enter Full Screen
    • Click the full screen icon in the upper right corner of the main Maya window.
    • Press Ctrl + + F

    Maya moves to a new desktop and the title bar, menu bar, and dock are hidden. Any floating windows that are open when full screen mode is activated are also moved to the new desktop.

    TipWhen full screen mode is enabled, moving the mouse to the top or bottom of the screen reveals the hidden interface elements.

To exit full screen mode

  1. In Maya, do one of the following:
    • Select Maya > Exit Full Screen.
    • Click the restore screen icon in the upper right corner of the main Maya window.
    • Press Ctrl + + F.

    Maya returns to the main desktop and restores the window size that was used before full screen mode was enabled.
