Taskbar won't un-hide when Autocad 2018/2019 is maximized with scaled display.
Taskbar won't un-hide when Autocad 2018/2019 is maximized with scaled display.
I have several systems with 4k displays, and resolution scaling set to 200% - essentially making the size of fonts and desktop icons the same size as they would be on a 1080p 28" display. The problem is, when running Autocad 2018, taskbar will not unhide when moving mouse down. This persists on all these systems and still happens after 2019 upgrade.
If I disable resolution scaling by setting it to 100%, then everything works fine, but fonts and icons are so tiny that it is unusable.
I have found that the maximum scaling for AutoCAD is about 125%. If this is not usable, then reduce your resolution slightly to see if that helps.

There are no problems with autocad scaling at 125, 150 or 200%. On my particular display, 200 is ideal, and the only problem is that taskbar wont unhide when I move my mouse down. It's a very annoying bug that existed in Autocad 2018 and persists in 2019.
I did further testing, and the issues persists, with 125, 150 and 200% display scaling. My screen resolution is 3840x2160 and when display scaling is set to 100% there is not problem - taskbar pops up as it should when I move mouse down. But when scaling is increased, taksbar wont pop up anymore. This is a bug, because it happens on several systems, both with 2018 and 2019.
Thanks for the video! Does the Windows taskbar display properly if you do not auto-hide? What happens if you do not run the AutoCAD window fully maximized? Stretch to nearly maximized and let me know if the taskbar behave differently.

If I stretch the window to maximum extent, the taksbar behave properly. This is what I've been doing instead of maximizing the window in the interim. If I don't hide taskbar, then it behaves properly as well, but steals screen real estate. 🙂
I have verified that that this issue is logged for the team. Thank you for your patience but before you added the video it was a bit unclear to me that you meant the Windows taskbar and not the AutoCAD one.

Any update on this? I have the same issue. I've also noticed that when I first open CAD in model space it displays correctly, but as soon as I pan it splits the layout tab side and shortcuts side (at the bottom) into two rows, grabbing useful screen space - image attached
Doesn't happen with me. If i resize autocad window where shortcuts and layout tabs overlap, autocad will split them into two rows, and then as I strech the window back they still stay as two rows, but if I click maximize they go back to one row.
My AutoCAD 2018 was doing that as well, but I didn't notice it as much as the screen jumping around at the same time. On the bottom right hand side, all the way to the right of the shortcuts is a triple horizontal line. If you select that icon, there are a list of several items you can toggle on and off. On the top of mine is coordinates. If you uncheck the coordinates, it seems to solve the issue, both splitting the lines as well as the weird jumpy flickering on my side.
Why is this shown as an answer to resolve the issue? From what I can see nothing is resolved here and I am also having a similar issue with Revit 2019. It won't let other windows or software supersede it. I have to minimize Revit to see anything behind it.
