Tool Palette switching

Discussion in 'AutoCAD' started by norman.friedrich, Mar 10, 2005.

  1. I am using a toolbar with 3 different buttons to switch among 2 standardized tool palettes and the user default tool palette.

    I can successfully switch to my standardized tool palettes by using a macro such as:
    ^C^C*_TOOLPALETTEPATH "C:/My NRCS Engineering/Cadd Resources/Tool Palettes/11x17"
    This points them to a locked tool palette.

    But I am wanting to let the user switch back to their default tool palette location. I want the macro to work for any user who might use that computer. How can I get the following macro to work to that the LOGINNAME value gets utilized?

    ^C^C*_TOOLPALETTEPATH "C:/Documents and Settings/LOGINNAME/Application Data/Autodesk/Autodesk Map 3D 2005/R16.1/enu/Support/ToolPalette"

    I want this to point them to their default ToolPalette location. We are using Autodesk Map 3D 2005.

    Thanks - Norman
