Create an Enterprise CUIx File
An enterprise CUIx file typically stores customization information that is
shared by many users, but is controlled by a CAD manager. Enterprise CUIx
files make maintaining and modifying customization data easier for the
individual responsible for controlling company standards.
Create an enterprise CUIx file by performing the following tasks:
■ Create an enterprise CUIx file from an existing CUIx file or a new CUIx
file. Make a copy of the main customization file (acadlt.cuix) or another
customization file of your choice that contains all the base user interface
elements you need. If you want to start with a new customization file, use
the Transfer tab to create a blank customization file.
■ Designate the new file as your main CUIx file. Using the Options dialog
box, you must load the customization file as your the main customization
file so you make edits to all of the different user interface elements. Make
sure to note which customization file is currently designated as the main
customization file, as you will need to restore it later.
■ Modify the contents of the enterprise CUIx file. Once the customization
file is designated as the main customization file, you can change the
customization group name and modify the CUIx file contents as needed.
Changing the customization group name allows you to load more than
one CUIx file in the program at one time. CUIx files with the same
customization group name cannot be loaded into the program.
