    ribbon issues

    MY ribbon has stopped changing with selections. It used to show hatch options when the hatch command was active, it no longer does this... It would also show hatch options if I selected a hatch with grips, and show other options for other entities if selected with grips, it no longer does this. What worng with it?

    Hi,

     

    verify two settings:

    PICKFIRST

    RIBBONCONTEXTSELECT

    Thank you for your quick reply. 

     

    Unfortunately those settings didnt not fix the issue. 

     

    PICKFIRST was already on (1), and RIBBONCONTEXTSELECT was initially set to 1, I tried RIBBONCONTEXTSELECT on 0, 1, and 2 and it made no differance.

    What did you recently change or add (or delete) in AutoCAD 2012?

    The only thing I have altered recently is that I created my own workspae, and removed some pulldowns that I never use.  I dont know if this is the cause or not. But I do know if I switch to other workspaces, it still doesnt work like it should.

    Hi,

     

    >> The only thing I have altered recently is that I created my own workspae,

    >> and removed some pulldowns that I never use

    And you are sure you have not modified any context-menu's also? After reading you have modified the CUIX that would be the first location to search.

    I can honestly say that I do not know if I inadvertanly modified any context menus. My only goal, and the only thing I did intentionally, was remove pulldowns.... How can I restore the menu to a pre-modified state?

    Pendean, you are amazing!

     

    Thank you so much, reset option worked. 

     

    Oddly, the pulldowns I removed are still gone, so I dont have to go back and tweak anything.
