Yes, Once you figure that out I can add some more buttons onto my toolbar.
I had to rearrange it to add in the new commands from the Orders \ Menu - to the
Combat \ Menu - I hate switching between the two.
The attachment toolbar2.jpg is no longer available

i wouldnt hold your breath that I will be successful - but I certainly will look into it.
Is your toolbar a MOD - i use RB's bugles and flags toolbar and like it alot.

I played around with those commands yesterday, but I can't see them doing anything pertaining to the Divisional, and the Corps Command, but I said the same thing about the other units until you proved me wrong.
Is your toolbar a MOD .
More like the beginning of a mess, now I have to change the colors' of the blue \ grey buttons to a darker green, like the Combat \ Orders - Menu.

Cant find it - the only 'detach' I could find was in the courier csv. What one did you find it in Davinci?

Put an 'A' in front of it. Adetach will do what you want. As I have said on several occasions, the stock couriers.csv would perform much better if an 'A' was placed in front of many of those commands. It does no harm and saves much hair pulling. For me, that's important as I don't have much left.

:laugh:
SO if I change that command to adetach in the csv, i will be able to attach brigades across division?
What does A mean, All?

Yes. At least that is how it is designed. I personally have never done it though. I don't detach troops. By putting an 'A' in front of a command, the order will affect ALL the units under that commander, i.e. it works at the brigade, division, etc, level. Without an 'A', the command operates only on the individual unit it was sent to, i.e. a commander or a regiment.
The 'A' is your friend.

This sounds great - just to make sure I understand - what csv am I changing?
I was doing the above by the toolbar. In fact I havent been able to get the courier command to work at all.
So if I want to change the way the toolbar operates so it lets me move brigades across divisions - I am changing what exactly?

Toolbar? Shame.

I would imagine you'd modify the gui.csv file. Find the detach/attach commands and change them to Adetach and Aattach.
For proper play, do that in the courier.csv file. And while you are at it, you can preface most of the other commands with an 'A' too.
