Hi,
Rhino 7 - I customized my UI a bit and every time i load up Rhino it keeps slightly re organizing the panels…? Any help on making that not happen?
Hello - do you have one, or more than one RUI file open? It looks like one to me but just making sure (Options > Toolbar page)
And, are you using a single monitor or multiple displays? Here, arranging things as in your image sticks between sessions so far.
@whitie925 , can you provide the exact Windows build information from Windows’ System Information?
-Pascal
Hi Pascal,
Many thanks for the helpful info. I wasn’t aware that you could have more that one rui open…? What would be the point of that?
I did notice that when rhino opens… if i select a template then things open fine with panels in the correct position… if i let rhino open the default template on its own, it re arranges the panels… Is this odd?
Yes. Thanks for that detail.
@whitie925 - are you selecting a template from the splash, when it works right? And, if you open Rhino without selecting a template, is it opening with a default template that you’ve previously set,
or truly no template at all?
-Pascal
Hey @pascal - Reviving this b/c I’m running into same problem, with toolbars not sticking where they should, after many a month of them being fine. They do go back to the “same wrong” position, which is like my computer sticking its tongue out at me 
Recent changes:
- Downloaded RH8 WIP, and created starting window setup (which opens the correct way)
- Docked some SubD toolbars
- Created new toolbar with couple new buttons, etc.
- Updated to newest RH7 Release
I believe I do have multiple RUI’s going on here, but truthfully, I’e always been a bit confused by the toolbars, groups, rui, etc. And I do have two monitors going, and two GPUs (though one is RTX2070 and one is RTX3060) with one monitor in Portrait mode. This is not new, though.
Thoughts?
EDIT: Was able to basically start from scratch (closing a bunch of the toolbars in the Options window) and then reopened one by one. Seems to be working ok now. Think it’s maybe some unique quirk?

Hi Alan - can you post a screen shot of Options > Toolbars?
-Pascal
I cleaned it up, which I think helped the situation.
Plus I had a couple RUIs from a different location on my computer, which I brought into the default folder location - could that have effected it?
Here’s what I have now, though.
Hi Alan - what might help is to
- Save default as default_alan.rui ort something like that.
- Import the toolbars you need from the other three rui files into that saved-as file.
- Close the other three.
-Pascal
THanks, I’ll try that.
Follow-up (and apologies if this is a sep topic):
I have a “Pop-Up” toolbar I made, but it’s in a diff Toolbar (Group?) How would I go about getting just that grouping (small-g) into my default_Alan.rui?
EDIT: Do I make #2 happen from the Workspace Editor, or from the Toolbar Option window?
EDIT: Ah, hate when I figure something out after asking! – For others, here’s what I learned:
- From the Options>Toolbars window, Highlight the new default_Name
- Got to File > Import Toolbars…
- A window will appear asking “Select groups to import:” and you’ll get a bunch of checkboxes below it to choose from (incl a “Check All” button below)
- The selected Imported Toolbars (including the selected Groups) will pop up on the screen. (This is part I didn’t know about)
- Swap the Old Toolbars you have on the Rhino interface with these newly Imported Toolbars.
- In Options>Toolbars window, Close all the other toolbars except for “default_Name”
Hope my being a dumb-dumb about this ends up helping someone else
