olecarman Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 This may be a simple fix, but I'm stuck. When I went to open an Autocad 2006 drawing this morning, an Autocad box came up on the bottom of my screen and the drawing did not open. When I hover my cursor over the Autocad box at the bottom of the screen, the drawing opens just above the box, but it is like 1"x2" in size. The drawing is all there, but small. I can't figure out how to get the drawing to open full screen. It may be a click of a button, but I'm not sure which button. Please help ASAP as I need to work on my drawings. This is the first time this has ever happened. I restarted my computer twice but still does the same thing. HELP !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 It sounds as though you minimized AutoCAD at some point which is just like minimizing any other Windows program. Did you try stretching the box using your mouse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olecarman Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 No, it won't stretch at all.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olecarman Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 I use a 2nd monitor on occasion, but I typically have it turned off. So for what ever reason, the drawing went to the 2nd monitor which I had turned off. I turned on the 2nd monitor and there is my drawing full size. What a dummy I am... I just never use that 2nd monitor that much and for whatever reason, the drawing went to the second monitor.. So I just dragged the drawing back to my main monitor. Problem solved after 2 hours wasted.. Oh well. Thanks guys for you time.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
