3D MAX TUTORIALS

 

Expert Mode

Views menu > Expert Mode

Keyboard > CTRL+X

When Expert mode is on, the menu bar, toolbar, tab panel, command panel, status bar, and all of the viewport navigation buttons are removed from the display, leaving only the title bar, time slider, and viewports. Use Expert mode when you need to view your composition alone without the rest of the interface.

With the ability to customize the user interface in the software you can create your own versions of Expert mode by hiding whatever you want item-by-item. Expert mode is only a quick way to hide everything that can be hidden at once.

When in Expert mode, use keyboard shortcuts to hide and unhide the command panel, toolbars, and so on. You can use the quad menu to access tools quickly in Expert mode as well.

Procedures

To turn on Expert mode, do one of the following:

  • Choose Views menu > Expert Mode.

  • Press CTRL+X.

To turn off Expert mode and return to full display:

  • Click the Cancel Expert Mode button to the right of the time slider.

To display and hide the tab panel while in Expert mode:

  • Press Y.

    Note: In order to hide and unhide the tab panel, it must be displayed in the UI before entering Expert mode.
