Tool Palettes

[lrultsch]

Somehow my Tool Palette has changed from the 'typical' set-up with walls, doors, annotation, our firm's standard tab, etc. Now it contains tabs such as hatches, finishes, draw (standards lines, arc, circle), civil info, structural, and more. I can't find where this can be changed back.

Thanks.

I assume this would work the same for 2009? and what if I copied someone else's profile (set up almost identical to mine)?

Thanks.

If it is the same problem as with 2010, it seems that it's just the current profile that is being corrupted, so I would think another user's profile would work just fine. I've had this problem so many times (though actually not for several weeks now) that I update my profile and export it for backup everytime I make changes to it. That way, it's just a few clicks to recover the profile when I lose the OOTB palettes.

I tried another user's profile...did not change. I do have the option of installing 2010 (we just received it). I am not confident enough with my own knowledge of resetting the cad system as Matt had prescribed. If I decided to do this I assume the best thing to do is to save a copy of the profile and/ or template onto a server which has backup. Thanks for your help.
