Tutorials / Help on working with the CUI

[LTM586]

I have a custom MNS files that I have migrated from 2005 to 2006. The last two menus that I have do not show up on my menu in cad but they show in the cui why is this? anyone!

I have about 20 stations that will be using this one cui file. I have recreated the two menus in the cui on my station and the menus load in fine. Oh yeah if I unload the cui and reload it the menus don't show up either? Its like its not saving or something, is their some other way of saving the file? If I try to load the same cui file into the other stations they don't show up? Its almost like I have to go to each station and recreate the two menus on each, I don't want to do this! I have about 8 other menus that load just fine, i'm not understanding why the last two are not. In the 2005 mns file they work just fine. What is up with this CUI?

Have you looked into workspaces?

You may want to check out the links provided on BLAUGI (http://blaugi.com/) (AUGI forums have CUI Menus covered... (http://augi.typepad.com/augi_news/2006/03/augi_forums_hav.html))

What Opie said.Especially the videos (IMHO); things will make a lot more sense.

I watched the videos and they were helpful, but I’m still having the same issue. I see where I have the ability to set the master cui file for all my users and still have a custom one for them to modify. The problem I’m having is when I try to fix the last two menu files that did not migrate over. I’m able to fix them in my station and save it to the master cui. When I load that same cui file into another station it does not pull them menus in. The funny thing is it shows my fix in the cui. Should I try to migrate all over again? I’m willing to share my file so it can be explained more if that would help.

OK. Let's have a look. It'll probably be easier that way.

Have you added the new pulldowns to the workspace(s)? You cannot ignore workspaces, you must use them to control what elements are visible.
