How to add partial CUI custom ribbon panel to 2D Home ribbon tab

I have just updated to v27 so trying to figure out how to transfer customisations instead of reinventing the wheel each time.
In v25 I have created a partial CUI file containing my custom toolbox/tools, and ribbon panel.
When I load the partial CUI file in v27 I can see the contents listed but cannot add the custom panel to the Bricscad 2D Home tab. If I try to drag and drop it shows a "no-entry" sign, and when I RMB > "Append panel" my custom panel is not listed for selection.

Can anyone explain how this is supposed to work?

    Unfortunatley when Ribbons were introduced they abandoned the MNU text file source and went to a cui/cuix which are multiple XML files. Often looked at making CUI files say using Excel/Cad rather than the CUI editor.

    Back to your problem in old method you would do a "Menuload" and add your custom menu to the current workspace. So if you have exported the custom ribbon try menuload.
