BG-Map TechNote

Writing a Script to Automatically Load the AutoCAD Menu

Revised 3/28/07

Starting with BG-Map 2007, it is no longer necessary to create a script to load the AutoCAD menu. BG-Map now saves and restores your normal AutoCAD configuration.

When you start BG-Map, the current AutoCAD profile is now saved by BG-Map. The profile stores all the settings that you use when you run AutoCAD without BG-Map. When BG-Map exits, the saved profile is restored. This means that BG-Map will not change your normal AutoCAD settings, including menus, colors and features.

To take advantage of this new feature, start AutoCAD without BG-Map, set it up as desired and then exit AutoCAD. From that point on, BG-Map will save and restore the settings.
