Customize - Toolbars

Use the Customize User Interface > Customize tab to create or modify toolbar items. A toolbar consists of a row of icons (small pictures) that identify its command. You can modify existing toolbars and create new toolbars.

In the Customization area, select either a workspace or a customization file (for example, ICAD), then expand Toolbars in the list. Expand a toolbar name to show the toolbar items for each toolbar.

To create a new toolbar

In the Customization list, right-click a toolbar name, then choose Insert Toolbar. The toolbar will be inserted in the list above your selection.

Add items to the toolbar (see next).

To add a command to a toolbar

Drag a command from the Command List to the toolbar in the Customization list.

Or, for more options, right-click an item in the Toolbars list and choose one of the following:

• Insert Button Inserts a toolbar button that runs a command when clicked in the user interface. The toolbar button is inserted in the list above your selection.
• Insert Sub-Item Inserts a toolbar button if you right-clicked a toolbar name. If you right-clicked an item on a toolbar, inserts a toolbar button nested in the list under your selection and the selection becomes the parent command on a fly-out.
• Insert Spacer Inserts a line that appears vertically on the toolbar to separate groups of commands. The separator is inserted in the list above your selection.

To rename an item on a toolbar

Do one of the following:

• In the Customization list, right-click an item, choose Rename, then type a new name for the menu item.
• In the Customization list, select an item, then in the Properties area, type a new name in Name.

To specify button images and properties for a toolbar item

Select an item on a toolbar in the Customization list.

Depending on your selection, Button Image and/or Properties areas display on the right. Specify the desired options for the selected item. For more details, see Customize tab > Button Image and Customize tab > Properties.

To copy and paste an item

Right-click the item in the list, then choose Copy.

Right-click where you want to locate the copy, then click Paste.

To delete an item from a toolbar

Right-click an item, then choose Delete. The program prompts whether you are sure you want to remove the item. To remove it, choose Yes. To keep it, choose No.
