spiker7221 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 HELP! I've been doing some customization and for some reason, when I right click on a block and open the Block Editor, I have no tabs to..Test Block, or even the one on the far right to Close Block Editor. How do I get it either added to my Main.cui? Thanks, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBox Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I don't suppose you made a backup copy of your CUIx before customizing, did you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiker7221 Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 Actually I did, thank God. I've figured it out and am done. I do have another issue that is very strange - Ive never seen before. After all this editing, now my Tool Palette commands don't work. All I get is the text string of the commands being added to the command line....one after another. Should my Tool Palette belong to my Main.cui, or my network/read only Enterprise.cui? Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBox Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Tool Palettes are not part of any CUIx... They're located wherever you stored/created them per your Profile's setting(s). Does that make sense (sorry, short on time today)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the very same issue and cannot sort it. I am guessing it has something to do with the CUI but everything I try it simply will not display it. Thanks Gareth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuns Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 He simply took his original copy of the CUIx and replaced his current one with the new one. Did you keep a backup to your CUIx before you changed anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StemDriller Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I have a back up yes, but the Block Editor will simply not show, i have added to both Enterprise and Customisation CUIx files unless of course I am adding the wrong items, but quite confident I am not.

SLW210 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I believe your problem is very different from the OPs. The OPs problem was the Tabs not showing in the Block Editor, you seem to indicate you do not even have a Block Editor. Is that correct? P.S. What version of AutoCAD?

Tuns Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Have you checked if it is there in the CUI? If you don't already know, all you do is type "CUI" into the command line to open it. Expand the "Ribbon" tab, then the "Panels" tab, then scroll down until you find the tab called "Insert - Block Definition". Under "Row 1" in the block definition tab, block editor should be there. If it isn't then just add it there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did sort of fix this, I used the acadm.cuix default, renamed it and used that. My block Editor did indeed come back, however my Partial Customization Files (Vault and Express Tools) now no longer show even though they are quite clearing in the Enterprise.cuix.
