button images on my toolbars, commands are missing |
|
|
I work some years with autocad since some weeks with autocad 2005.
I have the following questions, please can someone help?
1
Some button images on my toolbars only show a "?". There must be missing
some file
somewhere? What file (or menu item) and how to load it? I use customized
menu's.
2
Some commands are missing. Eg. if i want to change an object's layer there
is an error "Unknown command "xxxxxxxxxxx". Press F1 for help." There must
be missing some file somewhere? What file (or menu item) and how to load it?
I use customized menu's.

You must have loaded a new Menu Group from the Menu Customization dialog
box? Did you remember to add a path to the folder containing your button
bitmaps? If not, go to Tools - Options and on the Files tab there is a
Support File Search Path folder where you need to add the path to your
folder that contains you customized *.mns file which hopefully also has your
button bitmaps in it.
Are your missing commands part of the Express Tools? If so, you need the
original disk to load the Express Tools. Otherwise, you may be used to
typing in commands that aren't recognized by the system because you need to
customize the acad.pgp files. Go to Tools - Customize - Edit Custom Files -
Program Parameters (acad.pgp). This will open the file where you can
specify what command line text is used for the actual command. For example:
I like to type DD to invoke the dimlinear command. After making changes to
this file you have to save it and restart AutoCAD for it to recognize the
command.
I hope I helped.

Relz,
All paths are in my Support File Search Path folder.
There is no directory with toolbar bitmaps on my pc, however i get most
button icons normally shown in my toolbars.
These are standard AC toolbars and buttons, i made no new toolbars and
buttons, just new rollout menuus in the upper bar (file-edit-view etc)
The express tools work good. Just normal AC commands disappear, like
_ai_molc (for changing a layer).

Open the mns file that contains the toolbars that you are using. Using
search and replace in your text editor, change all instances of ICON_16 to
RCDATA_16.
Have you tried typing ai_molc at the command line?
