Express Tools In ADT 2004

[ahoconst]

I can't for the life of me figure out how to load my express pull down menu into Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2004. If someone could help me out, that'd be GREAT! Thank you.

I had the same thing happen to me in ADT 2006. I ended up "reinstalling" ADT 2006, but once I started the reinstall process, ADT saw I had ADT 2006 already installed, then prompted me to "change" my install by adding features that I missed on the original install. In an expandable tree of options, one of the features was the Express Tools that I overlooked on the original install.

 

I think you can do the same thing via the Control Panel in "Add/Remove Hardware".

 

This was ADT 2006, not sure if this works the same way in ADT 2004.

 

Good luck.

In case the menu isn't loaded use the 'menuload' command and a list of menu's that are loaded come up, if it isn't there you may need to browse to the correct loctaion of your express tools menu and load it. You want to be in the menu bar tab and add Express to your menu bar. It is good to go to options and save your current configuration to user preferences before messing with things so that you can go back to where you were and you can also save different menu layouts for different type activities i.e. 3D or 2D. Of course your options may be slightly different in ACAD 2004, but they should be similar.
