Smiley Faces?

I have both ADT 2004 and ABS 2004 loaded, and I have the CAD Manager
pull-down and toolbar loaded in both. In ADT the CAD Manager toolbar is
fine, in ABS, the Display Manager, Style Manager and Visual Audit buttons
have the question mark icon indicating the image can't be found. I tried
re-compiling the mns, mnr and mnc files from the mnu and reloading but no
luck.

Sounds like you are doubling your efforts and maybe the menus have been overwritten a bit. Speaking from a BS3 stand point I am not positive on BS4, but within BS3, a full version of ADT is included. So there was no reason to install a separate copy of ADT 3.3. In fact it potentially caused problems to have both loaded.

True, for most people, however I must be able to support both architects and
mep engineers. I need to have an ADT that is not populated by ABS, and vice
versa. Which is why I never loaded them on the same machine in 3.3 (you
couldn't). With 2004, it doesn't seem to be a problem, except for possibly
this, which I could live with. Interesting though, since I installed ADT
before ABS, and it's ABS that is not finding the icons.

Hi Matt -

Have you recompiled the ABS menu's (our are named different than the
standard ADT ones)?

Please post back if it doesn't work.

I tried that first off, Jason, the ABSCadManager MNC, MNS and MNR were all
deleted leaving only the MNL and MNU files, menu unloaded from the
interface, then reloaded. No change.

Interesting. But not insurmountable. I'll just save the images from the ADT
interface and apply them as images to the toolbar buttons in the ABS
application.

Thanks.

DOH!!

Looks like the install is missing a required .dll for those images. Do what
you did before (delete all the cad manager .mnc, mns, and mnr files) the
copy that ADTCadManager.dll and name it ABSCadManager.dll. Now reload the
menus. Image should appear.

Thanks Matt!
