Catalog Autoload?

[Tiger]

Goodmorning!! ...at least in my corner of the world.

I'm using ACAD Arch 2009 and am trying to organize the tool palettes so that they're as easy to use as possible.

Arch 2009 comes with a structural catalog where all the different beams and pillars and stuff are, but it seems that that catalog (and .APC file) is not loaded when I start the program, I have to go in and load all the types of beam I want each time - is there a way to have the catalog loaded from the start each time?

I have been wondering this myself. I have to reload them all the time as well.

Your first post at CADTutor comes in the middle of a thread, is unrelated to the topic at hand, and requests someone's (who?) email address. That's not exactly how it is done around here.

If you have something to contribute to the topic then feel free to join in.

If you have a question or want to introduce yourself then there are appropriate areas to do so.

It is not a good idea to post your email address in a public forum.

Asking for a member's email address as your very first question here seems a bit odd too. What is the purpose of your request?

A "hori zone", perhaps better know under it's full now "horizontal zone" is a zone where the only permitted mode of transportation is via the crab walk, ie horizontal walking.

That's what I think it is anyway :)

And ipodsfanmail - I second ReMarks comment, your post rings a weird-bell in my head...

Ok, so follow-up question since it doesn't seem one can auto-load a catalog - how does one go about loading a complete catalog in one go? Right now I have only figured out how to load the beams one by one...

can you just drag the catalog from the menu into your title bar?
