There must be a faster way to updated the current, custom workspace, without having to choose "Save Workspace" and retyping the same name! I constantly tweek my workspace and do not want to save multiple versions, I just want to update the current space.
I'd like to simply hold "option" as I select the current workspace name and have AI update that workspace with my current setup.
how to save a custom workspace in previous versions does not exist in Illustrator CC. Has this option been reconfigured or simply forgotten? I'm using a Trial Version.
View 13 Replies View RelatedSo when I booted up this morning and logged into the CC desktop application it told me that there was a Photoshop update available. I installed the update, opened Photoshop, and my workspace no longer exists. All of my custom settings (scratchpad color, menus, docks... EVERYTHING) has been reset to the "Essentials" workspace. And when I tried to "sync settings" to hopefully pull back my custom workspace from the "cloud" it showed that I had never synced before and seemed to have no information to pull from the cloud. So that did absolutely nothing. I had also saved my custom workspace, but it isn't an option to select in the drop-down menu.
Now I have to spend time trying to remember all of my custom tweaks before I can even get started on my work. At this rate, I'm going to have to screenshot my setup just so I have a record of my workspace in preparation for the next update that wipes out everything. I thought the whole point of "sync settings" was that a backup was kept of everything so this wouldn't happen.My experience thus far with CC has been that every update breaks something in my workflow.
A month ago, a Windows update broke the version of PowerPoint I was using (on deadline, of course). The next day, while we were trying to straighten out that mess, I hit a website that downloaded a virus, which caused Win XP to blue screen within minutes. That got cleaned up immediately, and our net op set my computer to run in safe mode. After about 2 weeks in safe mode, I returned to normal access.
Since I started running safe mode, I've been unable to write to the workspace files in Ventura. I thought returning to normal access would straighten that out, but it hasn't. Neither has a reinstall. The net op has been through the registry twice, including cleaning out every key he could find before the reinstall.
Every time I close V10, I have to hit OK on half a dozen prompts. There's one for each of the four *.cfg files in the workspace folder. After the fourth one (shortcut keys), the Ventura window closes and the shortcut keys message is presented twice more.
Naturally, within VP, if I access Options, I get the four cfg prompts, and I get them again when I click OK in the Options palette. Only the cfg files are affected. The workspace *.ini files update without issue.
PS CC won't save a custom workspace. Nothing happens. In addition, I get a "Can't apply workspace because of a system error" when i try to view the What's New workspace. Just downloaded the CC today. Mac 10.7.5, 3.4 GHz processor, 16GB RAM.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I attempt to create a custom workspace (based on x6 defaults) everthing appears to work correctly until I restart the application. At this point the dockers I have positioned at right side of the workspace are either fully expanded (Transformations) or are fully collapsed (Object Properties & Object Manager).
This a major pain since I do not want to reset my workspace EVERY TIME I START THE APP!
I have already done multiple F8 restarts & re-creating of custom workspace with no change/improvement.
Re: PSPX6 16.1.0.48 32-bit
I got a message to install service pack 1 this morning. Since then every time I load PSP the workspace is the default workspace and all of the tools I had added to the toolbars are missing. If I load my custom workspace from the load menu, it makes no difference, it just refreshes the screen and nothing changes. Also every time I load the program it displays the Learning Center and Organizer tabs, even though I keep disabling them.
I tried resetting everything back to the defaults but it doesn't work. Should I do a new re-install or is there something I'm missing?
I can add the SNCL-MMG tab in all the standard Workspace.
After that I save in a new profile.
In this computer it's ok.
My custom CUI is an Enterprise CUI.
But when I go to another computer and install my custom menu using my profile saved.
I didn't see the tab I need in all standard Workspace.
Autocad add my custom workspace and everything is fine on my custom workspace.
We run 6 seats of Map 3D 2012. We are upgrading computers but want to remain with 2012 for the time being.
Our old machines were 32 bit; the new ones 64 bit. I am having to load the 64 bit version of Map 3D fresh to all the stations (individual; not network)
I have set up custom menus and a preferred workspace on my station some time ago. I don't want to have to reconfigure everything from scratch.
What files do I need to save and how do I access them once I have reinstalled the new version?
Using PSE 11, I get the panels set up the way I want, and the background that shows behind the document white like I want, and all is well. Until the comptuer loses it and I have to redo it all over. How can I get it to save my choices for these things? It also lost all my preferences that I set.

I would like for the image to open or if not open then when I keystroke cmd+0 for 'fit screen' so it only occupies the area of the screen that is free.

Many parts are piling up in the workspace.For example to the library (like "normal iparts" do) or to a folder in the workspace (workspace/ custom_ ipart_ folder)?
I tried creating a custom workspace and was able to do so (without any modifications) but when I was in that workspace, and loaded an old menu, it wiped out all the default workspaces. where / how these default workspaces are stored, or how to upload all my old menu stuff without going through a tedious cui mod?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using Illustrator CS6 on a Mountain Lion Mac. Got a weird problem with one of my fonts. I'm used to type accented characters like é by typing option-e plus e. Which works so far. On one of my fonts however, EuroComic, when I want to type the é character and start with option-e, it already changes the font to Myriad Pro. Typing the e after that makes it é, but in Myriad Pro, not EuroComic. It has always worked before when I was still using Snow Leopard. And it's not a font problem I think, cause in Indesign that same way of using option-e plus e works. The é is at the correct spot in EuroComic cause when I select all text and change it to EuroComic (after having typed that é), not only does all text turn into EuroComic again, but also that now Myriad Pro é turns back to EuroComic é. What could it be that could make illustrator turn the font to Myriad Pro after typing option-e on that parcitular font? With other fonts like Arial etc.

I had a custom extension (a custom panel made with Adobe Configurator) installed that was working fine in CS6 (PC, both 32 and 64 bit versions) but after the update to 13.01, the extension no longer loads. I have tried reinstalling the extension but that doesn't work. I can no longer select it from the Window > Extensions menu.As it was working fine before the 13.01 update, I can only imagine it has something to do with that specific update.
View 27 Replies View RelatedWhat's the easiest way to update an existing custom SA once it's in the drawing.
For example i have some coding that I'd like to change and this particular SA is in use 10 times in my file in different ways. I used the Subassembly Composer to create the original custom SA.
It's not as easy as saving the file over top of the existing .pkt file, if it was I wouldn't be here. It seems to be behaving like a block would. I need to redefine the Subassembly in order for it to update in the drawing. How is best to do this and is there any tricks to the process. When do i need to open and close Civil in order to apply the new changes.
Do I need to update the SA in my tool palette as well?

Is there a way to save a custom artboard setup with a custom document profile in illustrator cs5? I do technical illustrations and our page size is odd (7.19 x 8.96. It the size that our Framemaker layout is set to.). I have a custom document profile that I use, but I use the grids all the time so that my callouts are spaced out evenly around the art. I would like to have a way to set the artboard up so that the grid will align to the center of the artboard everytime I turn them on. Right now they always start from the top left and when I center art in the center of the page, the grid spacing isn't the same on each side of the art. I just want to be able to open my document profile, turn on my grids, have them start from the center, and I can get down to business. As it is now I have to go into my artboard settings and manually adjust the grid to the center. Small annoyance, but it still annoys me. I have tried to save it a few different ways, but nothing has worked. Maybe there just isn't a way.
