Unable to Export/Import Tool Palletes nor Groups in ACAD MEP 2014

I've been trying to share Tool Palettes and Groups in AutoCAD MEP 2014.  unfortunately I am not getting the option to do so when I go to the Manage Tab\Customization\Tool Palette the only options I see in the dropdown after right-clicking a Palette or Group are Rename, New Palette and Delete.  Everywhere I look for help tells me that I should also see Import and Export.

 

Please help

That functionality for tool palettes does not exist in AutoCAD MEP.  Instead you should use tool catalogs to share your tool palettes.

Hi Raúl,

 

1. Save the palette, if not saved yet

  a) type _AecContentBrowser b) click on "My Tool Catalog" c) drag the palette here d) close catalog

2. Find this catalog by default "C:\Users\UserName\Documents\Autodesk\My Content Browser Library\MEP 2014"

3. Copy and paste on remote PC for example to the same path

4. Type _AecContentBrowser on remote PC > right click on "My Tool Catalog" >

     > Publish 'My Tool Catalog' use option - "Leave it in its current location" > Next > specify the folder > Next > Finish

5. Open "My Tool Catalog" >  drag palette on desktop

6. Сheck palette - insert any tool with graphics on desktop, if the graph is present, then ok!

 

...somehow
