I accidentally hide the toolbar.. i tried to get it back but i made it worse by hiding actually everything what is normally at the top my screen.. does someone know how i get this back because i use the toolbar all the time and dont really like using shortcuts because i dont know all the names from the things i use.. see photo thanks!!

Hi,

 

first I would try is to use the workspace-icon in your status bar (lower-right, gear-like symbol) and activate another workspace, then change back to the workspace you had before.

 

If that does not work then try

if you meant ribbon ==> command _RIBBON

if you meant toolbar ==> command _TOOLBAR .. and there you might need to know toolbar names like "Standard" or "Layer" and enable them

 

HTH, - alfred -

Hi,

 

>> but i can only put it to the left or the right side

Have you tried my first suggestion to change the worksspace?

 

Move your mouse to the position marked in the following image, click and hold the mouse to move the ribbon and put it anywhere else.

If it can't be moved then enter command LOCKUI into the command-line and set it to 0 in case your UI is locked.

Hi,

 

please click that small icon as often as needed to get the state of Ribbons shown as you like to have them.
