Help, with autocad Architecture

[Anonymous]

I am using autocad architecture and for some reason the top bar has options like line, circle, ployline, ect. Those are Autocad commands... How can i get it to show wall and doors and architecture commands?

Looks like you're running it as plain Autocad, not ACA.

Check your "workspace" (bottom right hand side of screen, the little cog)

When you installed the software, did you install with 2 short cuts to start the program?

One for ACA and one for plain Autocad?

Right click the shortcut and in proprties it should have the correct switch, something like:

"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD Architecture 2015\acad.exe" /ld "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD Architecture 2015\AecBase.dbx" /p "AutoCAD Architecture (US Imperial)"

Start OPTIONS command, click on the profile tab, double-click on the ARCHITECTURE profile.
