Minimize the Ribbon |
![]() ![]() ![]() |
The Ribbon is designed to help you quickly find the controls that you need to complete an operation. Controls are organized in logical groups that are collected together under tabs. Each tab relates to a type of activity, such as adding content or changing the settings that affect the map's appearance. To reduce screen clutter, some tabs are shown only when they are needed. When the Ribbon is minimized, you see only the tabs.
There is no way to delete or replace the Ribbon with the toolbars and menus from the earlier versions of ArcGIS Explorer. However, you can minimize the Ribbon to make more space available on your screen.
Tip You can still use the keyboard shortcuts while the Ribbon is minimized. To learn more about keyboard shortcuts, see Use the keyboard to work with the Ribbon.
