What are the CUI files
Files with the CUI extension are Customize User Interface files for BricsCAD. These XML format files replace the previously used menu definition files (*.mnu *.mns). CUI files can be edited with the build-in interactive editor, launched by the CUSTOMIZE command. You can migrate CUI files between BricsCAD versions and combine them between different computers.

NOTE |
The Load partial CUI file ... procedure accepts IntelliCAD menu files (*.mnu *.mns) and converts them to CUI files. |
