Hello,
We have installed AutoCAD LT 2024 to review how can LISP help in our work organisation, but the "APPLICATIONS" panel, as shown on the preview of LT 2024 does not show up in our workspace. Any idea how to turn it on?
Thanks
And you are sure this screenshot displaying LT2024 and not LT2023?
(Sorry, but your titlebar doesn't display the productname and the Icon in the same for 2023/2024)
So, command APPLOAD is working, but you missing the button in your ribbon,
what is present in a standard installation of LT2024
Did you "migrate" setting from an older version?
Sebastian
ahh I see, you migrated from older versions - so your product is no longer a standard installation with standard settings.
Set the standard workspace active and you will see this ribbon panel.
How to:
Save your current workspace first, because WE don't know about you exact situation.
Command: WSSAVE (choose the current name - I marked it in my picture)
Next step, command: WSCURRENT
Select the original workspace

Yes, I have migrated my previous workspace, as I wanted to keep my layout. What do I need to do to add the panel from the standard "Drafting & Annotation" workspace? Is that something I have to do via CUI Transfer?
>>" What do I need to do to add the panel from the standard "Drafting & Annotation" workspace"
Not "from another workspace", just add or remove from a workspace.
>>"Is that something I have to do via CUI Transfer?"
No
CUIX Files containing all panels and tabs,
by WORKSPACEs you can controle which Tab item should showing up / or not.

Learn more about CUI(X)
Excuse me, but I don't support such (for me unknown) migrated cuix files.

You can drag&drop the main cuix ribbon/panel/ <name of the application panel>
to your ribbon/tab/manage

Like this right-click action we all can do in LT2024
But I did not do a migration like you did because in our office we do not jump into a brand new program without a month or more of testing so that our projects and clients do not suffer
@pendean, Thanks for the solution, unfortunately, right-click in the Manage Tab, under "Show Panel" has only 2 Panels to Choose from and no "Applications".
It might be just easier for me to alter the "Standard" 2024 workspace to fit my needs than trying to solve that... Thanks for your help anyway.
The Panel shows up when changed to "Drafting and Annotation" (Default) Workspace. But even whilst in this Workspace it does not appear in the CUI.
I will probably just open standard CUI, modify what I need and overwrite my custom
Workspace.
Wrong cuix file
It looks to me that you added the whole old cuix file .. what's odd and you last Screenshot showing the wrong old cuix file.
We can't know how you set up your program, but it is odd and if you have to ask how&whym
it isn't a good way. (It's okay for someone who knows how to manage cuix, but if not..).
C:\Users\<yourid>\appdata\roaming\autodesk\autocad LT 2024\R30\deu\support\acadlt.cuix
This is the original one
and if you like to continue the way to did,
yes, use the : Transfer Tab in CUI command dialog.

We have followed recommended installation, with all of the "Import from previous Version" ticks. Can't remember what this included.
I did not have to transfer CUI settings in a while, and I have too many custom shortcuts/modifications to start from the original file.
I think weirdly changing the workspace to Standard, with the "Old CUI" file might be the way to go forward, as it keeps all my modifications in CUI, and gives me the required Panels, without them showing up in CUI...
Thanks for helping everyone. Hope this partially successful settings transfer will get sorted in the newer versions.
Look in CUI dialog, upper left section,
what is the main cuix (path and name)
and what other cuix are loaded in the partial node.
I guess there is one additional one with stuff from your old version.
Sebastian
"flying blind" seems to be a possible reason
If you select the correct CUIx file, does your personal Workspace disappear too?
