Display any panel full-screen
You can expand any panel to display it in full-screen mode, and toggle back to normal view. You can do so with the
current panel in focus or the panel you are hovering over with your mouse. In Adobe Premiere Pro CS5, do the
following.
Hover your mouse over the panel you want to maximize.
1
2 Press the accent key (`). Typically, this key lies just to the left of the numeral one (1) key. Some see this key as the
back quote key, or the tilde key. Press the accent key once more to restore the panel size.
In Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 and later, to maximize a selected panel you can choose Window > Maximize Frame. To
restore the panel size, choose Window > Restore Frame Size. You can also press Shift+accent to maximize the panel
size of a selected panel. Press the accent key to toggle the panel size of a panel you are hovering over with the mouse.
Note: When Adobe Premiere Pro is installed on a computer with a non-U.S. keyboard, the Maximize Or Restore Frame
command is mapped to a key other than the accent key. The key for Maximize Or Restore Frame is listed in the Keyboard
Customization dialog box. To find it, select the Adobe Premiere Pro Defaults set. Then, select Application from the menu.
Scroll down past the Help heading to Maximize or Restore Frame.
