Zoom Extents leaves part of my border outside drawing window

The title says it all.  When I perform a Zoom Extents on my drawing part of the border is not visible.  What part of Extents does Autocad not understand.

How do you activate Zoom>Extents?
What is your AutOCAD version? Windows OS?
Is this a sudden new problem, a problem in all files, or a problem in this one file?

Without your DWG? Or is it happen in all files?

 

_RECOVER / _AUDIT

 

Try it again when the FILE-window is not set to maximized.

 

Sorry, hard to say

On second though it looks like your tool bar is covering the drawing... or rather zoom extents isnt recognizing the toolbar and is drawing to the bottom of the ribbon. 

 

What happens if you resize windw as @cadffm suggested.

 

perhaps undocking and redocking the toolbar as well.

How do I Zoom Extents...Trolling is not necessary.

 

Zoom ENTER then E Enter...how do you zoom extents?  I guess there is a toolbar button, or the pull down menu but come on?! 

 

I am working with AutoCAD 2016.  I have started noticing this problem on and off with different dwg files over the last few days.  

 

I have over twenty years with AutoCAD and am a Certified Professional so lets keep it professional guys.  I have tried several things to no avail.

These Question are professional.. because we ( or only I) dont know you.
And EVERYone can make mistakes in a hurry.

how do you zoom extents?  With double-click on middle mousewheel.

 



See that picture before, there is not a problem specially with Zoom-extents.
Graphiccard, driver - if you are using more than one monitor (4K ? ), try the other one
monitor-resolution?


I had seen it in the past, but i can't remember (yet)

Did you set MAKEDRAWINGSBAD to 0  (<-- thats trolling)

 

Thicken up, we are merely trying to understand your problem. 

 

I initially confused your issue with a panning issue that can be resolved by REGEN. 

 

Have you tried applying the solution yet? (<-- thats trolling)

 

I have no way of knowing what you have or have not tried so we gotta start somewhere. 

 

The snippt in my other post i believe might be a larger symptom and point you in a direction that is not Zoom related. I have attached it again

for comparioson this is mine
