Supporting AutoCAD customization

progeCAD supports AutoCAD .cui/.cuix files which are used to control the following aspects of the progeCAD user interface:

• Workspaces

• Menus

• Toolbars

• Ribbon, contextual ribbon states

• Quick Access toolbar

• Application button menu

• Keyboard shortcuts

• Aliases

• Double-click actions
