 TROUBLESHOOTING

----------------------------------------------------------------

 Colors look a little different than what you purchased.

   Make sure your color theme is set to Dark. Type the command Options, then under the Display tab your Color Theme is set to 'Dark', and click OK. These colors are designed to look best with Dark theme.

 CAD Filters tab is not showing in the ribbon:

  - Make sure the .bundle folder is directly inside

   ApplicationPlugins (not inside a subfolder

- Fully restart AutoCAD after installing

  - Confirm your AutoCAD or Civil 3D version is 2025, 2026, or 2027.

 Command says "Unknown command":

  - This means it was not installed correctly. You will not see

   CAD Filters tab above the Ribbon.

  - Make sure your bundle file is in ApplicationPlugins folder

 Colors did not fully apply:

  - Enter the command Cadfilters, or click on the button again to reapply 

  - Some dialogs (like Properties or Sheet Set Manager)

   may need to be closed and reopened once

  - If ribbon tab colors appear dark after re-applying,

   click the Ribbon Display button (the small down arrow icon at the

   top-right corner of the ribbon) to cycle the display mode -- colors will snap back immediately.

 The only command you need to know:

   CADFILTERS  -> opens the CAD Filters window for your actively installed filter.
