Issue: Toolbox does not Load when Starting AutoCAD
After installing Toolbox Standard and starting AutoCAD, Microvellum Toolbox may not load. Here are some steps to resolve this issue:
- In your AutoCAD command line type APPLOAD and hit enter
- Under Startup Suite, click the Contents... button
- Verify that two files are listed
- Toolbox.fas
- This contains all the MV commands used within Toolbox and is required.
- netloadmvtb7.lsp (attached below)
- This file tells AutoCAD to load Toolbox.
- It should be saved to C:\Program Files\Microvellum\Toolbox
- You can open this file with Notepad to verify the path is correct. Make sure Microvellum.Toolbox.dll exists in the directory.
- It should read:
- Once both files are added, restart AutoCAD and MV Toolbox will load. If it doesn't, please check the path in the LSP file.
