Special Menu in AC11

Where did it go and how can I get it back?

Tried all the start-up key combinations I could think of. Opened the plist and changed Special Menu from False to True, still get nothing.

Specifically I was looking for the place all Library Parts command.

As far as I know it is the same as in AC10. You seem to need to edit your registry -

If you need further info, do a search specifically for 'special menu'. It crops up fairly often.

Hope that helps!

On the Mac you have to edit the prefs file.

On a Mac so its not a registry edit, it shpould be done just in the plist, which is what I did, just like I did in 10, but it still doesn't show up.

Using Pref Setter, I modified the com.graphisoft.AC 11.0.0 USA v1.plist, changing the Special Menu from False to True. Do I need to change another one somewhere?

You also have to add it to your work environment on both platforms. No surprise that it doesn't show up by default.

It's the same process as you used to get it to show up in 10:

Opps, trying to go to fast and couldn't see the forest for the trees. I was in the WE, made a new menu, got to sort by Theme, went down to Special and was looking for the Special Menu inside that folder, when obviously (now) that was the special menu.

Thanks guys
