Toggle Full Screen After Effects

[Bronques]

Hi everyone,

this seems like such a basic question:

but how do i view my composition FULL SCREEN in after effects? I searched "toggle full screen" in keyboard shortcuts and found nothing there. 

Thanks for your help!

I want to make this types of menu effect on after effect.

I found that I can make AE Window full size (i.e. without Windows Title Bar) by just pressing Ctrl+\.

That's highly useful. Why would anyone want a horizontal bar/real estate kept always wasted as long as you running any editing ware, without any purpose or usefulness?

This is what i was looking for... Thanks! 🙂

This is exactly what I was searching for... Thanks @zopfan !

I was trying to do this, and I found that if you have After Effects in a smaller window, you can drag the comp tab at the top of the preview window and drop it outside of the AE window, and this will detach the preview tab into its own window.

also I'm using AE on MacOS, not sure if that makes a difference or not
