No sketch tab

Jim Paige Aug 28, 2008 2:32 PM

When creating or editing a sketch, either in a part file or assembly, there is no sketch tab available. Right clicking on the tabs, shows that it's not just turned off, it's missing entirely (see image).

This is our first 64bit install. None of our 32bit versions have this problem. Is it possible that we didn't install something properly?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What happens if you click customize command manager and try adding the tab manually.

  Al,
  
  That allows me to turn on the sketch toolbar. I'm looking for a way to turn on the sketch tab. Oddly enough, when I have the customize dialog box open, a blank tab appears (not the "add-a-tab" tab, just a blank one). It disappears after exiting the customize dialog box.

    Problem fixed! The registry was corrupt. I loaded my registry backup and the proper tabs returned. Thanks to all for looking into it.
