Hello
I'm adjusting the ribbon in microstation connect and would like to make my own attributes and primary groups, and not use the preset ones. The problem then is the shortcuts. Because in preferences - position mapping I have attributes & primary positions as default; A & S, but when I make my own Attributes and primary group they are treated just like any other group. That means that the shortcuts gets kind of messed up when I have/dont have those groups in different tabs. I want my own to be treated just like the attributes or primary group should be, but customize it myself. Is there a way to do this?

Unknown said:To get the shortcuts to the Main toolbar as they were available out of the box you have to use the Task Navigation workflow.
We were actually goning to use that until we heard at the Bentley user group-conference here in Stockholm that the task navigation workflow will disappear in a soon upcoming update.
Unknown said:However if you pin the Main group to all workflows the shortcuts will be available in any of your custom workflows. See below:
I can't pin it, don't know what I'm doing wrong, but we need the shortcuts (or what we should call it) for them anyway, so that won't be a solution anyway.

do you mean put a / before it? It seems I can't do that because it's not a standard key on my keyboard, (it's shift + 7). English keyboards has it as a standard key, right?
Ok, so thanks again for your help. I'm really gonna need to think about this. Maybe using shortcuts as you suggested is the best way, at least it would have been if only I would have been able to use the numbers in first level.
Just a follow up qustion Jan, if I decide to use shortcuts. Can I put that in the same .DGNlib-file as my ribbon? And then load it as a GUI, or is it considered as something else?
Do you also know why we can't use numbers at first level for our shortcuts? See mine and Jan's discussion further down? That would make all this a none problem, at least for me.

Post the new question! This is very different topic from the original one and moreover it's lost inside lengthy discussion, so nobody will realize you are asking for help with different issue.
