Main User Interface Customization error message

YBS

Hi,
I have a question regarding to this topic.
I get the error message as stated in the title, but there is no error, so this message should not be displayed.

I start BricsCAD using a /P profile.arg file where I define the MAIN.cui file.
Here is how it looks like in my .arg file:

"CuiFile"="MYMAINCUFILE"
"MENUNAME"="MYMAINCUIFILE.cui"
"SRCHPATH"=".;%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Bricsys\BricsCAD\V16\en_US\Support\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Bricsys\BricsCAD V16 en_US\Support\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Bricsys\BricsCAD V16 en_US\Fonts\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Bricsys\BricsCAD V16 en_US\Help\en_US\"

I have that .cui file placed in %appdata% and BricsCAD do load this menu BUT it still displays the error message.
I click OK on the error message and I can see that my .cui is loaded correctly despite the message.

I test that by typing in MENUNAME and it gives back the correct path and .cui.

What am I doing wrong? How can I avoid that message box? Is it somewhere in the registry that tells BricsCAD where to look for the file or?
thanks.

If you check the MENUNAME value after installation you will find something like this:
%APPDATA%\Bricsys\BricsCAD\V18x64\en_US\Support\default.cui
Apparently leaving out the path results in an error message.

Hi, I don't understand what you mean exactly?

We load our own .cui file during installation (through the /P command). And the .cui is loaded, I can verify that with command MENUNAME directly after I click away the error message that I want to get rid of.
What do you mean I am doing wrong?
Thanks..

ah now I understand. I have tried to include the path in the profile file as well, but that did not work either

Try including the file extension for "CuiFile" in your .arg.

Hi, I have tried with the path and also file extension. Not helping unfortunately.
One question:
What happens when browsing for a .cui to load, is it some value in the registry that is saved or?
Let me rephrase:
How do BricsCAD know which menu that was last loaded so next time it is loaded automatically. I am trying to understand why I get this dialog all the time even though my menu is in fact loaded.

Have you perhaps 'manually' edited the CUI? Testing your ARG customizations with the default.cui may be a good idea. You would then know were to look, ARG or CUI, for a solution.
