VPMAX expands the current layout viewports to fill the screen and switches to Model Space for editing.

There are four ways to a maximized viewport:

* Enter VPMAX command after selecting a viewport in the Layout Space.

* Double-click the viewport border in the Layout Space

* Click the maximize viewport icon on the status bar in the Layout Space, which is located at the bottom, shown as below,
