All
Has anyone come up with a good working example of the CE spacebar menu. In my opinion the default is OK but there is much more I want from it. ie
I want it to be user configurable Add/Remove tools to suit my clients (Organization) or Project (Worksets) or users (Users) [user profile].
I want to control the keyboard shorts ie 32 move not Spacebar W
I want to be able to resize it
I want other popup ie Shift Spacebar, Ctl Spacebar
I want it to be model specific 3d tools, 2d tools Sheet /annotation tools etc
I know in the past David G has and he shared his ideas, which was great, but that's over a year ago in fact I think it was EAP stage. In software and usage we change our thoughts, our way of working, our desire to improve things, so I'm looking for user friendly examples of what you do with it.
Thank you

This is completely possible currently. The popup menu bound to the space bar is defined in the Shortcut Keys.
The workflow to achieve this would be is to create a dgnlib with the menus you want, once done you can map the spacebar with the following "ribbon grouppopup WorkflowName\RibbonTabName\TabGroupName"

Could you explain a little more. Do you mean you want to use position mapping. If so this is still possible.
Position mapping is controlled through the preferences, once turned on go to the Task Navigation Workflow and Pin to all Workflows the Main group.

Resize in what way?

This wont be possible but what you could do is create Child Key through the Keyboard Shortcuts Dialog ie you could have "Space -> A" or "Space -> B"

When you create a custom ribbon group you can use the visibility pulldown to determine if portions of the ribbon are visible dependent on some factors.
Some examples are whether the model is a 2D or 3D model, if current selected items are text or notes, if current selection is a raster, etc.
