Question

Illiustrator window in fullscreen after escaping presentation mode

Illustrator version 28.3
When entering presentation mode (shift+F), and then escape, Illustrator windows becomes fullscreen.
It's over my screen size. This causes me to manually adjust the window every time. It would be great to get back to same size and position.

I tested the previous version. Version 28 is the only normal version. All other versions have problems.

    I have this same problem. I have tried to clarfiy in a previous post. It's not a problem of USING Presentation Mode, it what Illustrator does to the Workspace when you leave Presentation Mode. When I leave Presentation Mode, my workspace has expanded to the edge of the monitor and shifted things around. This is even with things set with a custom Workspace.

        Still no solution and no response to these posts from Adobe after you posted 5 months ago. I guess they are not concerned that what probably is an easy fix is wasting their customers' time. Very frustrating!

        Hello @Chad36056497ictn,

        I am sorry for the delayed response. I tried replicating this behavior by running Illustrator 28.7.1 on macOS Sequoia. Would you mind updating the application and the OS to the latest version and checking if it helps?

        Looking forward to hearing from you.

         

        Thanks,

        Anubhav

        Try the presentation mode in View > Presentation mode.

        I think the problem Angoo is describing is not how TO VIEW IN Presentation mode but what happens to their workspace when they come out of it. 

        I have the same problem. When coming out of Presentation Mode, my workspace has been converted to full screen, even though I have set a custom default workspace. And every time I view in Presentation Mode, I have to go back and adjust my workspace when I leave Presentation Mode. I hope that's more clear.
