Just switched from 2007 to 2008... and having been readingthe issues others have had for several months, I have two to add tothe pile - the background image and pull-down menus.
For the background image, 'Tools... Options... System Properties...Colors' then change the 'Background appearance' from "Use documentscene background" to "Gradient", the changes are made for thecurrent session. When I exit SolidWorks, I would expect the changesI made to be saved to the registry. However, when I run SolidWorksagain, I'm back to the default background image. I've also triedsaving the settings as a scheme and saving the settings within apart template - those didn't work either. I have full admin rightson the machine, but it's acting like I can't write to the registry!It works as intended on two other workstations in the office...just not mine. Any ideas?
Second, is it possible to modify the pull-down menus of specificCommand Manager toolbars? For instance, if I select the Sketch CM,there is a pull-down menu for Smart Dimension. I'd like to be ableto add a few more icons/commands to this pull-down. Is thispossible in 2008?
Thanks!
