How to Create a Partial CUI File in BricsCAD

Quick answer: A new partial CUI file saves to the Support folder by default, the same location covered on this hub’s user files page, and loads automatically once created, along with a matching Menu Group across every relevant customization tab.

Creating a Partial CUI File

1. Launch CUSTOMIZE.
2. Either choose Create new partial CUI file… from the File menu, or right-click an existing Menu group and choose the same option from its context menu. The Create a Customization File dialog opens, defaulting to save in the Support folder.
3. Optionally choose a different folder to save to.
4. Type a name in the File name field.
5. Click Save. The new partial CUI file loads immediately, and a Menu Group of the same name appears in the Menus, Toolbars, Ribbon, Keyboards, Mouse, Tablet, and Quad tabs, as well as the Available Tools pane of each.
