Illustrator Program Size Adjustment Help

Hi everyone,

I noticed when using my type tool that the font option wasn't showing up at the top bar on my screen, even though I had my program at full screen. It wasn't until I stretched it out past my display screen that it popped back up (I'm using a 13 in. Macbook Pro). Is there anyway to fix this so that the font options go back to just showing up onto the top of my screen without stretching the program out past my display? Hope this made sense. Thanks!

    T the far right of the control panel there is a menu. In that menu you can deselect what you don't need. If you deselect enough items then there might be space to accomodate the font menu.

    didn't seem to work no matter how many options I got rid of.

    You also need to select a text object.

    Go to the top nav bar open window and go down to type and you can open the type boxes if they won't all show up in the top bar because your screen is too small.

    Hope this helps.

    yeah, the screen is too small cos it's still not showing up unless i stretch the program past my screen size. Which is weird because I never had this problem before, it just changed up on me out of the blue?

    Is there anyway to adjust it to accommodate the screen size?
