Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED ON CATIA VERSION
  5 RELEASE 18 GA level.
  NOTE THAT THIS PROBLEM WILL ALSO BE FIXED
  ON V5R16SP08 AND ON V5R17SP03.
  .
  General behavior :
  If it is marked "customized", each customization
  setting (from Tools/Customize) is saved at the
  closure of a CATIA session.
  .
  Incident diagnosis :
  During the first session, the user customized some
  toolbar settings. Those settings were then
  marked "customized". Therefore, they were saved
  during the session closure. At the opening of the
  second session, those settings were well read and
  applied. But they were no longer correctly
  marked "customized". That is why they were lost
  (not saved) when exiting the second session (and
  then not visible on third and others sessions.)
  .
  Correction explanation :
  The customized workshop is now correctly marked
  as "customized" after reading the customization
  settings in the second Catia session, so that the
  customization is now saved when exiting the second
  session (and all the future sessions...)
