MEP toolbar

Anonymous — Sat, 30 Jan 2016 08:31:11 GMT

Whats happened to the MEP toolbar?
I have been watching the videos on YouTube & reading the help pdf etc.
These all show a toolbar where preferences can be set & new MEP systems can be made.
But all of these tutorials & pdf are made in an older version of AC, so is the toolbar & systems dialogue now gone?

Rogerdodge:

It should be available under Window > Toolbars > MEP Toolbar. If it is not there, try going to Work Environment > Command Layout Schemes > and select MEP Commands 19 (or MEP Commands 18 if you are still on AC 18 ), apply it, and the toolbar should appear as an option. This will change your current Command Layout Scheme in your Work Environment. Unfortunately you cannot import just a Toolbar. You could also create your own Toolbar using the MEP commands.

Thanks David
No it wasn't there under window > toolbars
And I tried the MEP commands in the work environment & nothing.
But I have made my own now using the commands.
Thanks for your help.

Not sure if this is just me, but when I import the setup from previous version of Archicad some commands are not visible anywhere in the menu and I have to bring them back manually.

That is normal since those commands didn't exist in the previous version and the reason that GS highlights them in Blue.
