Problem to maximize the autocad window on screen

Eliud_Valencia — Wed, 31 Jan 2024 15:34:02 GMT

I can't maximize the atoucad window on a secondary screen. Every time I drag the window to the top of the top screen to maximize it or click the maximize button it generates this error filling the empty space with black color.

Attached the screenshot below.

Can anybody help me!

Are your two monitors running at different resolutions?
is this a Laptop+External monitor type situation?

I see you are running AutoCAD2024 in trial mode: do you have a different older AutoCAD version where this is not a problem?

Could be a graphics display setting. Check to see if your Windows Display setting on that monitor has text scaled up. If so try setting to 100% instead

Many thanks bro, I changed windows display resolution from 100% (Recomended) to 125% and problem solved!

Yes, this is a laptop+external monitor type of situation. But I think I solved the problem by changing the screen resolution.
