      Yes you can pick and choose what you wish to copy. It works similar to a backup program, or a 3rd-party CD Burner program. Dave is correct about the toolbar entries. The registry features of SU need some TLC, automatic cleanup etc. It's not hard to resetup the toolbars. Five mins max. Either put your old computer next to the new one for reference, or print out a screen shot. The shortcuts are kept in the registry, but as Gaieus said there is a export/import utility built-in for those. The ones you might wish to migrate, are the savings for WebDialogs or plugins. The WebDialog keys all begin with "WebDialog_" Unfortunately... there is no common prefix for plugin settings keys.

      If you don't care about having separate pieces for the molding, using Follow Me is a good way to create it. Make sure the path and the profile are in a context separate from everything else in the model. That usually means you'll trace around other components to create the path for Follow Me. Your path and profile do not need to be in contact with one another for Follow Me to work but the path must follow the shape that you want the molding to take. To edit the Follow Me molding in the way you need for moving the pilasters in your model, you'd open the molding component for editing and drag a left to right selection box around the part of the molding that wraps around the pilaster and then move the selection over the required distance. I use Follow Me to create moldings like this but generally, once the design is settled, I would divide it into separate pieces and make components of them.
