Draftsight Alias Commands not sticking

Draftsight Alias Commands not sticking

Draftsight Alias Commands not sticking

(OP)
Hi All,
I am looking for a solution as to why the settings I am applying in the User Preferences > Aliases are not staying put.
On my PC I have many AutoCAD commands setup within the alias list, but when I try exporting and importing them to another PC, none of the settings stick!
I have even tried setting a couple of alias commands manually, but even those do not stay put!
As soon as I press the Apply button any command in the list box disappears.
Can anyone assist please?
This is driving me nuts.
Regards
Brian.

RE: Draftsight Alias Commands not sticking

Brian, this is just a guess, but try tools-options-profiles, setting a new named profile. Export it and import it in the target PC. I'm dealing with a similar in some ways situation, and hoping this will solve some set up issues.

Regards, Diego
