  • Customize User Interface Editor. Controls the tools and command elements on ribbons, toolbars, and menus (CUI).
  • UCS Icon dialog box. Controls the appearance of the UCS icon in model space and paper space (UCSICON).
  • Clean screen. Toggles the display of the menu bar, status bar, ribbon, and the Command window when you want to expand the size of the drawing area (Ctrl + 0).
  • View transition settings. Controls whether view transitions are smooth or instantaneous when you pan, zoom, or change from one view to another (VTOPTIONS).
