PROFILES - How to set imported profile as current default?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello: When setting up users to use Autocad (version 09), I'd like to set their user environments to all be identical. I read that you could export a profile under Tools-Options-Profiles and save as an .arg file and then import the profile for other users.

 

I've played around with it a bit and it does seem to work; however, when i import the profile, then set it as the current profile and it all looks good till I close and re-open cad; at which time, I notice that it's not set to the current default profile.

 

How can I set my imported profile as the current default profile?

 

thanks,

Proctor

You need to edit your desktop icon to match the profile, in the icon properties look at the /p bit.

 

D:\Autocad2011\acad.exe /ld "D:\Autocad2011\AecBase.dbx" /p "myprofile"
