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.
Note:
- Full screen mode is only available if you are running Maya on macOS X version 10.7 or later.
- This procedure is specific to macOS. For Windows, see Enter Full screen mode (Windows).
