AutoCAD 2010 :: Minimize Windows From Maximize To Taskbar
Feb 16, 2011
1. had this problem for sometime. running windows 7. When i minimize my autocad window from maximise to the taskbar, for some reason when i click it on the taskbar to bring it back up, it has shrunk to its restore down size instead of the maximised window it was. This problem seems to only occur on win7. I don't have my windows aero themes off as i know of those problems, whats causing this one?!
2. whats also annoying in windows 7 is that i choose not to have my taskbar buttons combined, i am only in one session of autocad yet each drawing has its own taskbar button, is this normal?!

Am running the system as above and can't ever see the minimize/maximize/close buttons normally in Win 7's title bar.This means I have to keep quitting the program if I want to do anything else.Am I doing something wrong here or is this a bug of this particular implementation?

I have Lightroom installed on two Windows 7, 64bit systems. On one the top line above the File, Edit, Library... line is the expected; Lightroom 3 Catalog... at the left end and the three boxes on the right (minimize, maximize and Close). On my other system that line is missing. How to get it back?

I almost always work with multiple drawings in the same Autocad window. Often (maybe 2/3rds of the time?) when I have one drawing maximized inside the Autocad window, the minimize-downsize-close buttons disappear from that drawing's window. The only way to get them back is to cascade the windows.

We are having the issue with all of our Windows 7 machines that you cant switch back to Autocad using the Windows 7 taskbar. When this happened with 2010 we chalked it up to 2010 not being compliant with the new taskbar in windows. But when it started happening with our Acad 2011 installs it gets frustrating. Alt Tab doesn't work. Hover and select a preview window doesn't work. The only thing that works is starting task manager and clicking 'Switch to'.

We recently upgraded to Windows 7. Now when we open multiple drawings, each drawing is displayed individaully in the taskbar. This created problems for us when wanting to ALT+TAB through open programs; the drawings would be available for selection and get in the way.  I thought multiple sessions of the program were opening. It reminded me of older versions of ACAD where you could select (Options>Open & Save, I think) whether ACAD opened additional drawings in the same session or in multiple sessions. That option no longer exists, and I have been surching for the solution off-and-on for the last 4 months. The following post lead me to the solution although they were orginally asking to do the opposite. This post has too many entries (2 pages, who looks at a second page?) and is full of bickering, so I decided to post a separate comment. URL.....
The post below explains the solution quite well. URL....Windows 7 switched the default assuming most people would rather have the ability to hover and see a preview. Maybe that's true but I am not one of them. The reason it took me so long to find the answer is because I was always referencing "Multiple Sessions" and not searching for "Taskbar" solutions.
As a side note, in all my searching, the most common solution offered was changing the SDI variable. I believe, 9 times out 10, if not more, the SDI variable had nothing to do with what the problems were, yet it was always suggested.

what switch is it that needs to be changed so that when one opens up multiple drawings, they aren't sitting in the taskbar? Normally, you go to your 'Window' in the menubar to see your populated list.

I'm using autocad 2013 & the classic workspace instead of ribbon. Â For some strange reason, if 2 or more drawings are open & I minimize a drawing, it removes the minimize, maximize, close buttons from the right top side of the screen like in the attached picture. Â To get them back I have to go to the window pulldown & select the drawing from there. I'm using windows 7 pro with a nvidia quadro 1000m card.

The minimize / maximize / close menu bar has disappeared and though trying nearly everything I can think of it has not re-appeared. I am using CS6 on a MacPro.Â

Have been using Xara products for years and currently on Photo and Graphic Designer V7.
Normally, I have the three windows icons in the top right (minimise, maximise and close) and these normally operate on the whole of the Xara window. (If I minimise, then Xara minimises to the task bar and I see my desktop etc.)
However, today, if I click on minimise, then the drawing (within Xara) minimises, and I'm left with the Xara window but no buttons to minimise, maximise or close the whole window .... it's just there and the only way I can see behind it is to drag the sides in or use FILE / EXIT to close the program.

When I first installed Photoshop CS6 Extended on my Mac it had a bar running along the top that had the program name in it (Photoshop) with the red, orange and green, close, minimize and maximize buttons in it.
Â
Somehow I have turned this off and the three buttons no longer show. Below is an example picture of the bar I'm wanting to turn on: I have the application frame turned on and they still do not show.

Been using PSP since X2 and never had any real problems, but I recently purchased and installed x6. It started giving me a problem I couldn't live with so I uninstalled and then reinstalled PSPX6 Ultimate. That didn't fix the problem tho.
My problem: when I click on minimize, maximize or close, nothing happens. Repeated clicks of maximize has more than once even closed the program altogether.
As I mentioned, re-installation did not fix it, although the first time I clicked maximize after re-installation it did work. Then it quit.

Each time I open a second or third file in CorelDraw x5, the windows seem to lose the top MIN, Max Close icons. You know the ones that sit at the top right of each window. Because of this I'm unable to close or edit the work. In fact NOTHING works. I'm running Windows 7 64 bit with a TON of memory.

I switched from CS3 to CS4 and realized that when I turn on the screen mode called "Full Screen with Menu Bar" it actually switches off the windows task bar. It is actually crucial to me, as I am really used to drag the document with a hand tool without boundaries, which was always achievable once pressing "F". In that mode, I could still use the taskbar to navigate to other windows (and see notifications from the taskbar). Now, in CS4, the combination of nice document dragging and taskbar is impossible.

I just downloaded and installed PSE11 trial to do some experiments. I wanted to change to another window I had open, the Windows taskbar wouldn't un hide, this is a deal breaker if there is not a solution. I prefer not to minimize a window I prefer to switch from one to the other. Windows Vista

I've had a couple occurrences of X6 crashing suddenly, but a common one is when I've switched away from X6 and then try to switch back by clicking on the X6 icon on the Windows 7 taskbar.  I'm running Win7 64bit.  When I hover my mouse over the CDX6 icon on the taskbar, a couple of the preview mini-windows will show the Windows "working" round rotating icon for about a half second and then BAM - the windows "This Program is Not Responding" window comes up where you choose to either let windows find a solution (it never does), or just close the program.
I never have any trouble opening the program back up, or working with the exact same files that were open when it crashed. Â It does seem to happen when I have multiple files open, but I almost always am working with 3-4 at a time.

When I open, say, 10 images at once, I see (10) individual "restore down" windows atop each other;I then maximize top window & process; when I close top window:in my CS1, next window=image auto-maximizes window & sliders will appear if I zoom to 100%
Â
in my CS2, next window=image is still "restore down" & I have to click windows upper right "Maximize" icon
Â
Question: how to get CS2 "behaving" like CS1?

I'm always having to move my tool windows around, out of the way, or close them entirely when trying to see and work with my images.
Wouldn't it be great if we could simply minimize one or more of the tool windows to the bottom of the application screen? Then the tools remain INSIDE the current dimensions of the app, and can be restored to normal size with a keystroke or a click. Shouldn't be too hard to implement.

I recently loaded several versions of AutoCAD on to a Windows 7 machine. ALL versions will open a drawing if double-clicked from windows explorer, but if I try to open through AutoCAD, the program freezes as soon as I click on the "Open" button. This is true for AutoCAD 2010 through 2012.
Machine Specs:
Dell Optiplex 990
250GB HD
8GB Ram
I7-2600 proc
AMD Radeon HD 6670 (1Gb) Video Card
I also cannot open multiple instances of ANY version of AutoCAD in Windows 7.

I'm getting this error message in a cmd window.
'AutoCAD_2012_SP2_64bit.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I ran the following in the folder where the exe is.
AutoCAD_2012_SP2_64bit.exe /e AutoCAD_2012_SP2_64bit.msp
I'm figuring the UAC is probably biting me...

We have installed 35 AutoCAD 2010 on several computers. Some of these machines use Windows XP 32 bit and some are Windows 7 64 bit. We noticed few issues in both OS but here is one important one.On Windows XP user can insert a PDF file into a Cad file - Insert>Raster Image Reference then select the file type as adobe PDF.
Doing the same thing in Windows 7 wont insert a PDF file. The file type is set to "All image files". We type * as a file name and select a PDF file to insert. Result is an error window pop up saying "The file cannot be opened. The problem can be caused by several things:
-The data in the file is corrupted
-The file is an earlier format that is no longer supported
-The file format is not supported
Since the same version of AutoCAD on Windows XP inserts the same PDF file the none of these causes can be true. Why AutoCAD on windows 7 will not insert a PDF file?

i work with multiple screens. 1 is my main screen (laptop), 2 is a side monitor (much bigger than laptop) and wireless keyboard. i work on autocad 2012 on screen 2.  i've recently switched screen 2 as being the main screen (start button, etc). now, a bunch of my pop-up windows disappear and i can't find them unless i change my display screen back to screen 1. is there a way to make sure that all of the pop-up windows show up on the working screen (or screen 2), or the screen where the autocad software is displayed?
