Hi Chad
Please note I have *moved* this thread from the CAD Mgmt. General forum to this one, as I feel this particular forum is a more appropriate place for such a topic.
Thanks, Mike

At any time (whether Cleanscreen is on or not) you can turn toolbars on or off.Originally Posted by Chad_C
You might want to set up a script file to do this, because each time you quit CleanScreen and return to it, all toolbars are hidden again.Code:Command: -toolbar Enter toolbar name or [ALL]: DIMENSION Enter an option [Show/Hide/Left/Right/Top/Bottom/Float] <Show>: f Enter new position (screen coordinates) <0,0>: 50,50 Enter number of rows for toolbar <1>: Command: -TOOLBAR Enter toolbar name or [ALL]: LAYERS Enter an option [Show/Hide/Left/Right/Top/Bottom/Float] <Show>: f Enter new position (screen coordinates) <0,0>: 225,170 Enter number of rows for toolbar <1>: Command:

Was that a typo? What does mapping F10 have to do with displaying toolbars while in CleanScreen mode
Not being sarcastic, just want to know if I'm missing something here.

This works wonderfully, until I go back to the standard screen, and my toolbars are moved all over the place, and I cant figure out the names of some of the toolbars, but I will try and work something out, hopefully sooner rather than later.Originally Posted by rkmcswain
About that script file, I know squat about how to write one, mind pointing me in the right direction?
Thanks
Chad
They are just an ASCII file containing commands as you would type them at the command line, saved with a .SCR file extension.Originally Posted by Chad_C
Example:
Look in HELP for more detailsCode:-toolbar web _f 500,300 1 -toolbar reference _f 100,900 1 ;comments are prefixed with a semicolon ; empty lines or spaces are same as <enter>

is there an easy way to get coordinates of toolbars to insert into the scripts, without just trial and error?Originally Posted by rkmcswain
I have seen some shareware/freeware apps that report screen coordinates as you drag the mouse. Don't know of any off the top of my head...Originally Posted by Chad_C
If nothing else, open Windows Paint, maximize it, set the "canvas" at least as big as your screen, then as you move the mouse the screen coordinates are shown in the status bar. This isn't exact since Paint itself takes up some pixals on top and the left, but it may be close enough for you.
Remember, 0,0 is upper left. coordinates get larger going right and down.
