Tool Palettes within Vault

[randyspear6624]

The ability to store and path all tool palette content (including supporting .atc files) within vault. It would solve several issues including security admin and performance.

We are looking to move all are bibs from a hard drive to the Vault.

Users using the palettes do not want to lose the palette function.

This would be very usefull. I hope Autodesk will find a solution for this.

@ihayesjr Any news on this function? Having a central controlled location for tool palettes makes good sense to me.

I don't think it would ever happen to be honest. We moved our tool palettes to the root of C drive a few years ago with the intent that IT would push them out when requested. IT's involvement hasn't gone well but we haven't been keeping up with it enough to warrant getting on their case. Currently they are simply deploying with the palette folder when users get a new cpu or reimage but we do keep the master copy of the palette folder in ProjectWise (decided against Vault) so users can export it and replace it on their local drive if their looking for an update.

Moving to the local drive was also a blessing in disguise given everyone is now working form home so it's one less thing they have to retrieve from a network.

Future Consideration: While we’re generally a fan of these ideas, the timing isn’t quite right for development consideration. As such, they are being put on the back burner to be re-visited at a later date. Please continue to comment and add your support.

Thanks Both.

We now have the source file saved on vault as the master and as long as you have the latest on your local drive it seems to work.
