    Posted by Godfrey Pye on April 22, 2005 at 1:27 pm

    My client moitor has temporarily gone down and I have a client coming round to see his work this morning. My other monitor is a Apple 23″ flat screen cinema display (old style) and I seem to remember there was a keyboard short cut that allow the canvas to be ‘blown up’ to full screen. Trouble is, I can’t recall that command and I can’t find it written anywhere. Can anyone help please?

    Thanks Peter and that will certainly save my bacon this morning. However (and I don’t wish to seem ungrateful), there is a keyboard shortcut for this – I’ve used it before a while ago, I just can’t remember it or work it out as yet.

    Command F12. Make sure that “expose” is turned off or this won’t work.

    I have done digital cinema desktop before on other computers, but for some reason on my computer the option is grayed out. I also have an older 23″ Cinema HD display. Any suggestions?

    Thanks,
    Eli
