toolbar option missing from Tools Menu

alashwellZYSS6 — Wed, 07 Nov 2018 19:44:39 GMT

The toolbar option isn't listed in the Tools menu? Trying to add my custom toolbars I've been using for twenty years.

This is for Autocad Mechanical 2019. It is working for autocad electrical 2019 and Autocad 2019.

Which workspace are you in?
Is the problem present in the other workspaces?

CUI command
Expand the Toolbars Section
Are there any to select and turn on?

Hi @alashwellZYSS6,

I see that you are visiting as a new member to the AutoCAD Mechanical forum. Welcome to the Autodesk Community!

The Toolbars option is not included in AutoCAD Mechanical. It may have been included in the 2014 release, but was removed when AutoCAD Mechanical added the Ribbon.

You can access toolbars from the -TOOLBARS command, type in the specific tool bars, or All. The available toolbars can be found in the CUI here:

If you are not seeing this, I would recommend checking that you have the latest updates installed. If you suspect a corrupted install, you could try reset to defaults.

How to reset AutoCAD to defaults

How To: Installing AutoCAD Mechanical Updates Note that for AutoCAD Mechanical (and all Toolsets), there will be 2 updates to install, one for Mechanical, and one for core AutoCAD.
