Hiding Menu Bar doesn't work anymore in V7

Post by JimmyD »

I like the new Ribbon interface, but it desperately needs some reading mode of some sort to be able to hide the menu bar and preferably also the title bar. I would also prefer to get rid of any UI Chrome around the document area. Ideally I would like a more functional fullscreen mode with auto-hide UI items and tabs like Xodo.

Reading is what I do most and currently there is too much wasted vertical space.

If you like, you can still switch back to the Classic Toolbars of before, by using the UI Options at the right in the window's title bar.
In that situation, you can use the F8 function key on the keyboard to hide/show the toolbars and/or the F9 key to hide/show the menu bar.

Both, in Classic Toolbar and in Ribbon UI, you can click the Full Screen Mode option at the right in the window's title bar.

Best regards.

Thanks for the help Willy!

And if I may add - you can also hide the ribbon using this button:

Though there is no shortcut for this one yet.
