Having Trouble Positioning Toolbars

Craig_Patrick — Mon, 27 Aug 2018 17:36:26 GMT

Hello,

I am trying to write a routine that loads custom toolbars into the AutoCAD workspace. I was able to come up with some code for this task, however I need it to be dock the toolbars without disturbing the positions of the other visible toolbars. Also, upon docking several custom toolbars, there does not seem to be any order in their docking from left to right. My team members all have different UI preferences in AutoCAD and I want the custom toolbars to load while keeping all other toolbars in the same positions.

I tried using the toolbar float method to position the toolbars, however I am using multiple monitors and the toolbars always float within my primary screen.

Can anybody help me with this ? I am out of ideas of how to get this simple task to work.

This is an idea, can you please try setting system variable 'LOCKUI' to 4 and load your custom toolbar ?, change the setting back to as it [LOCKUI], I don't have code setup to try this out.

Are you generating these toolbars via code, or are you loading them from a partial CUIx?
