How could I restore in 2D the view in Expand environment?
Last company I worked for had CTRL+F1 or SHIFT+F1 for this command…….

Thanks

Do you mean you want to exit the view and return to the drawing? If so, you can right click and in the pop up menu click on (uncheck) the Expand entry.

No,
While I am in Expand view, I rotate the geometry.
I'd like to get back the view position that is previously expanding......

Sometimes, while being in Expand view, it happens to move the geometry.
You may want to establish the view you had before.......

View -> Operation -> Restore

That will orient the view to the normal plane you see it at when starting. Is that what you were wanting?
 
I'm not sure what it is that you're asking. Are you saying that you want to get back to the view the way it was oriented BEFORE you 'Expanded' the view? Or are you asking to return to the Drawing retaining the new view orientation that was the result of the rotation performed while the view was 'Expanded'?

First ooption....I want to get back to the view the way it was oriented BEFORE I 'Expanded' the view.........

If we're talking about getting all the way back out to the Drawing, simply press MB3 and toggle OFF the 'Expand' option and you should be right back to where you started. If you wish to simply get back to the orientation while STILL in the 'expanded' view, then, as previously suggested by cowski and WillBailey, just press MB3 and select the 'Restore' option.
