Hello, 
I've been looking into this and haven't found out one way or another, but is there a way to use a script to customize the ribbon? I'm looking to install a series of IDEA scripts on multiple user computers and it would be great if I can just have them run a script that does all the customizations of their ribbon so they can use all of the other scripts quickly. 
Any help that can be provided on this would be appreciated. 
 
Thanks, 
Chris
