By applying good palette management and saving your ideal workspace settings, you can conserve space on your screen. Standard Screen Mode is what you’re probably used to working in, but if you truly want to use the entire screen, without wasting even the tiniest bit, try using the Full Screen Modes. You can apply the different screen modes by clicking the Mode icon at the very bottom of the Tools palette or by pressing the F key.
Standard Screen Mode In Standard Screen Mode (the application default), all four sides of the document window are displayed. The name of the document is always shown at the top, and scroll bars appear on the right and bottom sides when the image is too large to fit in the window. When the Tools palette is displayed in double-column format, you can apply Standard Screen mode by clicking the Mode icon on the far left.
Maximized Screen Mode In Maximized Screen Mode, the document window is maximized to fit within the boundaries of the palette docks, and the title bar is hidden. Scroll bars appear on the right and bottom sides when zoomed in on the image.
Full Screen Mode With Menu Bar In Full Screen Mode With Menu Bar, Photoshop hides the document window boundaries and fills the entire screen with the image. Any visible palettes are automatically positioned over the image, while the menu bar is still accessible at the top of the screen. There are no scroll bars in this mode, so if part of the image becomes cropped off by the screen, you must use the Hand tool to navigate around the document. You can access the Hand tool quickly by holding down the spacebar. If you zoom out far enough for the document not to fill the entire screen, Photoshop fills the surrounding areas with gray. When the Tools palette is displayed in double-column format, you can apply Full Screen Mode With Menu Bar by clicking the middle Mode icon.
Full Screen Mode In Full Screen Mode, Photoshop fills the entire screen with the image and hides the menu bar as well as the document window boundaries. To apply menu commands, you must switch back to one of the other two screen modes in order to access the menu bar, or use the keyboard shortcuts (if applicable). If you zoom out far enough for the image not to fill the entire screen, Photoshop fills the surrounding areas with gray. When the Tools palette is displayed in double-column format, you can apply Full Screen Mode by clicking the Mode icon on the far right.
This can be a great way to work when editing an image with brush tools. To make even more room on the screen as you edit, press Tab to hide the palettes. You’ll be left with nothing but the image displayed across the entire screen.
