CUSTOMIZED COMMANDS
CUSTOMIZED COMMANDS
(OP)
I POSTED THIS THREAD:
IN WHICH FILE ARE THE CUSTOMIZED COMMANDS SAVED. I WOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO COPY THIS FILE BETWEEN MACHINES BUT AM NOT SURE WHICH ONE IT IS. THIS WOULD BE THE EQUIVALENT OF THE ACAD.PGP FILE IN AUTOCAD.
AND GOT THIS RESPONSE:
Normally I copy both:
FrameConfig.CATSettings
FrameGeneral.CATSettings
this way I can get costumized shortcut keys, and icons in the right places.
I copied these files to another location then copied them back after restoring my settings. All shortcuts were gone!
Does anyone know of a quick and efficient method of storing and transporting these shortcuts.
Thanks

RE: CUSTOMIZED COMMANDS
Clear out your catsettings
start catia
do nothing except create a custom toolbar & button
Close catia
You should have a relatively short list of catsettings file one of which must contain this information.
The way this task is intended to be achived is to use admin settings to properagate this imformation to multiple workstations

Read the online doc about CATIA ENV.
If it is too difficult for you to set up an ENV, then contact Dassault business partner for training or services. I am sure they can help you with this...

RE: CUSTOMIZED COMMANDS
you might want to try to copy the following files:
FrameGeneral.CATSettings
FrameConfig.CATSettings
DialogPosition.CATSettings
DialogEditStack.CATSettings
FrameUserAliases.CATSettings
I noticed that those files were modified when I changed the outlook and added customized icons.
RE: CUSTOMIZED COMMANDS
finally got to the bottom of it.
The user defined Aliases are here:
C:\Documents and Settings\your_name\Application Data\DassaultSystemes\FrameUserAliases.CATSettings
And not under
C:\Program Files\ DassaultSystemes etc.
Where I was looking.
The file doesn’t exist unless you have created at least one Alias.
Hope this helps the other person who was having problems
