Access start tab

Hallo Guys,

 

is there any API available to access and control the start/home tab of AutoCAD? To be more specific, we want to change the help links in the bottom left for our AutoCAD OEM based Product.

I don't think one can customize the "Start" tab, except for to make it show or not show. If you really want to present your user something is the same way as "Start" tab, there is API available to create your own "Start" tab (or however you want to name it): DocumentWindow API. That is, you can add non-drawing document window exactly the same way as AutoCAD's "Start" tab. The custom DocumentWindow must be WPF window. If you are interested, this would be helpful:
