custom source destination signal bitmaps

[samdonaldson3453]

Hello, I have created a custom source/destination arrow style.  I also created a bitmap (A_STYLE6h.bmp).  This bitmap shows up in the project properties/styles tab when choosing the arrow style. 

However, when I actually insert the source or destination symbol, a different menu of images is shown which does not include my new bitmap.  How do I modify this menu to include my new bitmap?  is it a slide library?

Hello Sam.

In your Program Files\Autodesk\AcadE 20XX\Support folder, you'll find sig_slb.zip.

Open this zip file, and have a look at "sig_read.me".

It'll explain the whole process for you 🙂

ok thanks.  for future releases it may be simpler to use the same icon file for the project properties and for the window that is displayed upon insertion.  I'm not sure why they would be different.

What has happened to this zip file? It's not showing up in a search of my entire C: drive and none of the folders where it used to live exist anymore...

Is there a new procedure for updating the slides on the insert source/dest arrow dialog?

Seems like they're gone.

I found a backup of the files from a time I made a custom 5th style.

I've attached them here for future searchers....

Thanks! I'll take a crack at it and see what else I'm missing.
