AutoCAD Architecture Customization

[#1]

I was workingona project with autocad 2011, but i lsot the original menus, Ihave been obliged to use the costomed menu. I knew how to use Autocad 2000 and ADT 2002, I have not used them for years, and now I have become a novice. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you using AutoCAD Architecture 2011 or AutoCAD 2011?

What do you mean by you lost the "original" menus?  Do you have no menu at all (no ribbon)?  Or do you mean that the pull-down menus and toolbars are missing?  If the latter, they are not missing, they have been removed from the ACA.cuix, in favor of the ribbon interface.

If you used the RIBBONCLOSE command to turn off the ribbon, the RIBBON command will turn it back on.  Or, you can set the RIBBONSTATE system variable to 1.

Mr. David, Thank you soo much for your intrest in helping me. I am using a trial version of Autocad Architecture 2011. The problem started when I tried to revise the  tools , I accidentally changed the program.

All that i can see now are : the save icon, undo and redo icon,print icon,project navigator icon, create a new file icon and a little bit more.

How do i bring back all the tools to the window of my current file?

See the attached image.  Perhaps you have simply cycled the ribbon to a minimized state.  If not, try typing RIBBON at the command prompt.  If you turned the ribbon off, that will turn it back on.  If both of those fail, check the Options dialog, on the Files tab, to see what Customization File has been specified.  If that is blank, or points to a file that does not have ribbon tabs defined within it, you will not have any ribbon tabs.

You are right, thanks for you help (:, now it´s here again.

I just became a "I Lost My Ribbon" club member!  I reinstalled the software/suite the other day (clean/full install, including registry trimming/wipeout).  Today I signed into Autodesk 360 account and... bam.... it sent me to the bug report page.  There I was wondering what happened.  Later I started Autocad (blank file) and found my ribbon missing.  I shut down Autocad, then opened a dwg file and it was still missing.  I tried the RIBBONCLOSE, RIBBON, etc but it didn't help.  The ribbon really is there... but totally blank  

There I was thinking... no wonder... some people just refuse to use ribbons but the legacy menu system lol  Here I am adventurous to use ribbons after avoiding it for many years ha ha  Anyways, while messing around I went to the top-left corner (the A icon/menu) and found/selected something like "show menu bar" and it gave something like the "File  Edit   View  Insert  Format  Tools" etc pulldown menus.  Somewhere in there was an item related to Workspace and I selected "3D Modeling".  Lo and behold... all my ribbons showed up again and it's all good!!
