Customization Q

[Anonymous]

I set up a new machine at home to work late night. I carry my USB key back and forth everyday to work at the office and at home. At home, when I right click to get my edit command menu, "Multiply" is not on the list. Even though fore the same file at work, it does appear when I right click.
What can I do to get Multiply on the right click list?

Make sure you are using the same Work Environment at home.

Especially in a situation such as yours, you should export your WE from the office machine (perhaps to a USB flash drive) and just import it into your home computer. All command layout, shortcuts, etc will be just as in the office with no confusion. If you adjust the WE on either machine, be sure to redefine and export and take the WE to the other machine to synch it.

ok
copied entire "work environment" folder from work computer and replaced home computer w.e. folder w/ it. it did not change the right click menu.

I will restart computer and see if it changes things.

I believe after you copy the Work Environment folder, you still have to load it into Archicad for it to know to actually use that folder.

Indeed you do. Use the Import button in the Work Environment dialog to import your profile folder. Or if you just wanted to import a scheme can do that too using the same method, when each particular Scheme is highlighted in the list.
