Add-in Command Bars option missing when adding a Add-in Component

[HalilSiddique]

Hi,

I have just installed ArcGIS Desktop 10.1, and am trying to create a new toolbar, from the notes I have from the training course I went on, it says to
Add new Item (Selecting Desktop Addin's)
Click Add
Choose Add-in Command Bars...

My problem is that the Add-in Command bars option is not there, I can only see Add-in Components s. See attached picture.

Anyone got any ideas on this?

Thanks

When you click on New Item, make sure you select the Add-in Command Container instead of Add-in Component.

This is relatively old thread.

But i have a different issue that i can't see Command Bars when i Add New Project -> ArcGIS -> Desktop Add-Ins

I don't see Add-in Command Container or Add-in Component. Instead i am seeing the one in screenshot below.

After i click "OK" to create new project, i see options as shown in the screenshot below.

I am using ArcMap 10.1 with Visual Studio 2010 and .net framework 4.0.

It should be the same issue. You will see those options when you use the Project|Add New Item menu selection after you've created your project.

Indeed Ken,  It's the same issue.

Thank you for pointing me in right directions.


Thanks and Regards,
