Saving interface between multiple PCs?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I thought I found the answer myself, because I did a google search and read that the customize files were named with an extension .cui, but then I read it came from .enu. I tried doing a windows search on the C: drive for both of those extensions, on one of the many computers I use on my campus, but came up with no results. I even had all hidden files/folders unhidden and displayed.

 

Not sure if this really matters, but one thing I noticed with these campus PCs is that they seem to reset most settings every time they restart (even the resolution).

 

In short, I still have no clue how to import/export any settings I make to my workspace or toolbars between computers. I could make one for each computer, but that would be very troublesome. I would be forever thankful for any advice you might have. :)

Go Tools - Options and the Profile Tab and export your Profile (after you're made all the changes that you need though) and save it somewhere appropriate. Then when you log on to a different computer - go Options - Tools - Profile tab and Import Profile and tada! (hopefully :P)

enu refers to a folder under local disk C:/ Documents & Settings / [username] / Application data / AutoDesk / AutoCAD 2008 / R17.1 / enu / etc. It does not refer to a file extension.

If you go one folder further down the line, to Support, that's where you'll find the acad.cui, acad.bak.cui, custom.cui and custom.bak.cui files.
