Important: The Full screen option is not available in Excel 2013 and later versions. However, you can always hide the ribbon, tabs, or commands, to maximize the screen space in Excel. For more information, see Show or hide the ribbon in Office.

To view more data on the screen, you can temporarily switch to full screen view. Full screen view hides the Microsoft Office Fluent user interface Ribbon, the formula bar, and the status bar. To have access to the hidden elements again, you have to return to normal screen view.

  • To switch to full screen view, press CTRL+SHIFT+F1.

  • To return to normal screen view, press CTRL+SHIFT+F1 again.

Tip: Still can't see everything? Press ALT+SPACEBAR and select Maximize.
