Hi. I am used to STAAD.ProV8i for more than 10 years. It's my first time to use STAAD Pro.Connect, and I find it really difficult. If I could just go back to V8i, I would choose to.
With so many icons now in different location, to have the frequently used icons be put on topmost part of my screen would be a very big help. But the problem is even on how to do that, I could not find it.
I've tried to search in the internet for a solution:communities.bentley.com/.../customizing-the-interface-in-staad-pro-connect-edition
Option 1 : Customizing the Quick Access ToolbarThere is now a Quick Access Toolbar at the top of the ribbon menu which may be used to add the frequently used icons to the toolbar. Click on the down arrow as shown next. The menu will expand. Click on the More Commands option as seen below.----->>> When I do this, there's no More Commands in the dropdown.
Option 2 : Customizing the Quick Commands Pop up menuWhile inside the Whole Structure window press the Spacebar on the keyboard to bring up the Quick Commands menu as shown next. Click on the lower right corner to customize the quick command. ----->>> When I do this, nothing shows up.
Please help me in here because I feel I got really slow in doing my project, spending time to find always the location of each icons.
Could you please let me know which STAAD.Pro version you are using?
If you are unable to see all "More commands" like below please create a service request for the same.
We need to investigate more for this case in your system.
Hi Abishek. I don't have access to that "More Commands." I can't even find the version of my STAAD Connect.
Go to File > Help > About Staad.Pro and you will find the version number.
Also, you can find the same in control panel.
It seems you are using some other version.
Here's the version:
STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition - Version 21.00.00.57
You should upgrade to version 22.01.00.39 as this is the latest one. The version which you are using is quite an old - in fact the first CONNECT Edition version.
Please advise how to update the version.
