MENUBAR

When MENUBAR is 1, AutoCAD displays its traditional classic menu bar below the application title bar. If MENUBAR is set to 0 (the default), the menu bar doesn't appear. MENUBAR is set automatically when you switch between the AutoCAD Classic and Drafting & Annotation workspaces.

image If you've been away from AutoCAD for a few years and feel in need of training wheels while you get used to the Ribbon, displaying the classic menu bar is a good approach. (I describe the differences between the traditional AutoCAD Classic and the newer Ribbon-based workspaces in Chapter 2.)
