We are still in out Testing and development stage of our CONNECT Workspace. Truth be told, it's really an Open Roads Designer Workspace, but under the hood, it's still CONNECT.
We have one GUI DGNLIB with two Custom Ribbon Tabs in its own Custom Workflow. One Ribbon Tab is called MDOT Tools and one is called Help.
I managed to pin MDOT Tools to all workflows a few months ago. Now I would like to pin Help to all Workflows as well.
The problem is, I cannot recall how I managed to pin the MDOT Tools tab in the first place. When I tried using what I thought was the same workflow, I managed to selectively pin groups from our Help tab into MDOT Tools tab and not to pin Help as another tab in the other workflows.
The only right click menu I seem to be able to open is for pinning and unpinning Groups. How to I pin tabs?
And is there a way to share the pinned settings once I actually get the pinned tabs working?
TIA
How do you knw the tab is pinned?

yep
Its appearing in all workflows and as far as I know, it's not copied into every one. When I tried to pin from the Help tab, the groups ended up in the MDOT Tools tab in every workflow, which seems to confirm they are not copies.

So I figured out a few things:
Some of our customizations are in one dgnlib and others are in a different one. Depending upon which file I am in, I can see our Custom Tabs or Custom Groups in the left pane of the customize ribbon dialog box, which can then be added to other workflows.
I'd like to know what variable I might be able to use to make all of our customizations show up in that left pane, no matter which dgnlib I am in.
And I was hoping you could export ribbon customizations to XML like other customizations so you could reorganize, as needed, going forward.

Did you try "ribbon customizations exportecxml" key-in?

I did not know that existed. Is there a similar import key-in?

Isn't it simpler (and faster) to try it yourself than to wait for an answer? ;-)
