Microsoft can do the ribbon on Mac, why can't AutoCAD?
Microsoft Office has the ribbon on MacOS, why can't AutoCAD? The interface is so outdated and limited.
Will this ever be on the cards?

Coming in late on this, I am running AutoCAD 2025 on a Mac. I have all of the icons on the left side. I do not have a Ribbon on the top, nor panels. I just have a row of Quick Access icons (New, Open, Save, SaveAs, etc) at the top.
Is there no ability to put the groups of commands at the top with a bit of text next to each icon in a Ribbon style as it is on a PC?

Nope. plus... No ribbons and No Ribbon panels in the MAC versions of AutoCAD.
if this is a dire business or personal need, your AutoCAD subscription allows you full access to both the MAC and WindowsOS versions of AutoCAD, including all the specialized Windows-only custom variants of AutoCAD that do so much more than plain AutoCAD. All you need is something like THIS

Gotta luv the support of fellow users. Thank you for your response.
Your quick response sure beat the hour long messaging from Support Assistance where I was directed to type RIBBON at the command line, to Reset AutoCAD (and lose all the time spending getting it closer to my needs), reinstalling AutoCAD, and multiple other efforts that my search through the support channels had already offered to no avail. Kinda like trying to put lipstick on a pig. ![]()

Have you informed technical support that you are using AutoCAD for Mac?
