<\/a><\/p>\nNow moving on to the Display Tab<\/p>\n
When you open the Options Dialog box – it will open on\u00a0 the last tab you selected. If that was not the Display Tab – then choose the Display Tab<\/p>\n
Once open you will see the first area of our discussion.<\/p>\n The Window Elements area<\/strong><\/p>\n Color scheme<\/strong> Display Scroll Bars in Drawing Window<\/strong> Display Drawing Status Bar<\/strong> When the drawing status bar is turned on it displays at the bottom of the drawing area. When the drawing status bar is turned off, the tools found on the drawing status bar are moved to the application status bar. It puts it at the bottom of your drawing area.<\/p>\n Display Screen Menu<\/strong> Talk about old school – here it is – you can get back that screen menu that you loved back in ACAD14.\u00a0 Boy does this bring back memories…\u00a0 I love it – but would never use it.<\/p>\n Use Large Buttons for Toolbars<\/strong> Show Tooltips<\/strong> Show shortcut keys in Tooltips<\/strong> Show extended Tooltips<\/strong> Number of seconds to delay<\/strong> Show rollover Tooltips<\/strong> Colors<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nThis controls either a dark or light color scheme for elements such as the status bar, title bar, ribbon bar, and the menu browser frame.<\/p>\n
\nDo you want Scroll bars at the bottom and side of your drawing area?\u00a0 Not me – leave it off.<\/p>\n
\nDisplays the drawing status bar, which displays several tools for scaling annotations.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nDisplays the screen menu on the right side of the drawing area. The screen menu font is controlled by the Windows system font settings. If you use the screen menu, you should set the Windows system font setting to a font and font size that fits the screen menu size restrictions.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nDisplays buttons in a larger format at 32 by 32 pixels. The default display size is 16 by 16 pixels.<\/p>\n
\nDisplays tooltips when you move the cursor over buttons on the ribbon, menu browser, toolbar, dialog Sheet Set Manager, and External References Palette.<\/p>\n
\nDisplays shortcut keys in the tooltip (Alt + Key) (Ctrl + Key). I suggest leaving these as they are unless the tool tips annoy you.<\/p>\n
\nControls the display of extended tooltips.<\/p>\n
\nSets the delay time between the display of basic tooltips and extended tooltips.\u00a0 You an edit this to maybe 5 seconds to get them to not come up so often.<\/p>\n
\nControls the display of rollover tooltips for highlighted objects.\u00a0 So when you “roll over” an entity in ACAD – it shows you info about the object.\u00a0 The ROLLOVERTIPS system variable controls rollover tooltip display.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nDisplays the Color Options dialog box. Use this dialog box to specify colors of elements in the main application window.\u00a0 There are so many things you can change – but why bother, unless you cannot see them.<\/p>\n
