  • 1.  Saved settings for a your customised ribbons

    Posted 12-16-2021 07:28
    Hi all
    I thought I would share this question from yesterday's (virtual) user group gathering:
    After discussing how to customise your ribbons in MapInfo (and mini toolbars and Quick Access Toolbar) the question cropped up:
    When you get a new PC, is there a settings file that you can copy over to the new PC with all your customisations?
    Is it just a case of copying the MapInfoPro.RibbonState.EN.xml from the AppData\Local\MapInfo folder to the new PC?
    Thanks

    Yes, that's the file.

    Note that this file exists for each version of MapInfo Pro.
    I haven't personally tried copying it across to other versions.

    Thanks Peter
    Good point indeed - keep to the same version.
    This suits when you are in the fortunate position of getting a new PC/laptop and need to install afresh.
