skipsophrenic Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 hi all, I've created a toolbar in AutoCAD 2008, and was wondering is it possible to export JUST the toolbar so other users can import it? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skipsophrenic Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 uh-oh i don't have the Migrate Custom Settings option, all i got in my menu bar is Attatch Digital Signatures AutoCAD 2008 Batch Standards Checker Reference Manager any ideas? EDIT: Can a moderator please move this thread to the appropriate CUI forum, only just realised posted question in wrong place.

Thanks type: cuiexport from there, you will see 2 lists, the left has your menu settings and the right has a place to export menu settings (toolbars, accelerator keys, etc.) to a new and separate cui file. from the left list, select the toolbar you want to share, drag to toolbar category on right side and save (option at top right) cui file. that file can either just be loaded (menuload) or the user can import the toolbar into their existing toolbars virtually the same way you exported it.

Thank you Alan, You don't know how long I have wasted asking for this very Straight Forward and to the point answer to sharing custom made toolbars. Anyone else either wanted to charge for the answer or make you go through and learn the long way. Thanks again! Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallen5 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Mr. Alan Sir, Can you share in layman's terms How I can Delete a Tool Palette Group? I Googled it, found a couple of processes but it was not as straight forward as the way you can explain. I am using ACAD mech 2012. Any assistance will help.

BIGAL Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I created some toolbars from scratch using notepad their pretty easy once you know how mine have custom icons, to load just menuload, being a text file its easy to change rather than edit within the CUI. ***TOOLBARS **ALAN TOOLBAR ID_ALAN_0 [_Toolbar("ALAN layers", _LEFT, _Show, 0,0, 1)] CL [_Button("Draw Cl", ALANCL.BMP, ALANCL.BMP)]^C^C^C-la s Design-Cl line; Lip [_Button("Draw Lip", ALANLIP.BMP, ALANLIP.BMP)]^C^C^C-la s Design-Lip line; Bok [_Button("Draw Bok", ALANBOK.BMP, ALANBOK.BMP)]^C^C^C-la s Design-Bok line; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
