Deployment of toolbars: .rui or .tb?

Having previously developed a toolbar in the .rui format using the Workspace Editor, I was a bit surprised to see that plug-in toolbars are in .tb format according to the information in
http://wiki.mcneel.com/developer/rhinoinstallerengine/authoring

Can I convert the toolbar information from .rui format to .tb format somehow? Or can I also distribute .rui files inside a .rhi file?

Stick with rui files. I think the wiki page may need some updating

I updated the wiki page to reference rui instead of tb files. The tb format is a Rhino 4 format that is converted to rui when read by Rhino 5.

Hello, @brian

Is there any possibility to convert .tb to .rui for V8?

Hi @Screamer,

Can you upload your .tb file?

Thanks,

Hi @dale ,
Thank you for answering.
Never mind. I already found another possibility which I was looking for.
In general, we don’t have any tool for this conversion, right?

The conversion tool is a version of Rhino that can read a .tb file and save it as a .rui file.
