Show the AutoCAD profile name in the title bar


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello everybody,

 

is there a possibility that the AutoCAD profile name (e.g. <<ADADMPP>>) could be displayed in the title bar? Is there a registry key or some other way? I would like to help those users who often switch between different profiles in AutoCAD.

 

Many thanks in advance

Karel

One way to do it is with a script file.

Modemacro
PROFILE: $(Getvar,CPROFILE)

1. I have attached the script file below. Save it to your Program Files/Autodesk/Autocad 2018/Support folder.

2. Right click on your Autocad desktop icon and click on "Properties". Then add /b Startup to the end of the "Target Location" as shown below.

 

Now when you open a drawing, you should see the current profile on the status bar at the bottom of your screen. And if you switch profiles, the profile status should change accordingly.

 

Let me know if you have any trouble getting it set up.
