Change Interface Design AutoCAD 2021 for Mac

[benjamin_burchardtVD56S]

Hello,

how can I change the Interface design of AutoCad 2021 (Mac) to the UI-Design of AutoCad 2021 for Win?
I am a teacher, whos working with a mac but my students are working with windows computers an AutoCAD. So I wanna have the same UI-Design on my Mac as my students have on their WIN Computers.

Thanks alot and best regards,

Ben Burchardt

Hi Ben,

It's not possible, unfortunately...

But you can install Windows on your Mac and run AutoCAD for Windows on it:

- use Bootcamp partition or visualization software on Intel Mac

- use virtualization software on Mac with M1 (ARM) chip

Hi Maxim,

thanks alot! 

may Autodesk will fix that UI thing in  a later version.
I know, that in other modelling/drawing softwares (like Rhino) its not that hard to change between WIN and MAC interface on Mac. so interface guidelines from Apple or Microsoft can't be the reason.
Anyway - thank you!

Wishing for it (or just posting around here) will not change anything: let Autodesk know your thoughts by actively asking for it where they look for user feedback, here is the link https://www.autodesk.com/company/contact-us/product-feedback
