Info

Create a Toolbar You assign ribbon tabs to a contextual tab state to display commands and controls on the ribbon when working in a specific context. For more information about the customization of ribbon contextual tab states, see Ribbon Contextual Tab States on page 186. Create a ribbon panel on page 61 (workflow diagram) Create a ribbon tab on page 62 (workflow diagram) Assign a ribbon tab on page 187 Create new ribbon panels as needed to display ----- the commands and controls you want to display on the ribbon. Create new tabs as needed to control the display ----- of ribbon panels when the context of the contextual tab state is met. ----- Assign the ribbon tabs to the contextual tab state. Toolbars organize commands and controls on small dockable windows. You can add commands and controls to a toolbar making it easier to access the commands you use. Commands on a toolbar can be displayed as a single button or a grouping of buttons with a flyout. For more information about toolbar customization, see Create and Edit Toolbars on page 190. Create a toolbar on page 192 64 | Chapter 4 User Interface <strong>Customization</strong> ----- Create a new toolbar to organize the commands and controls you want to display.
Add a flyout on page 203 Create a new command on page 58 (workflow diagram) Add commands and controls on page 195 Assign a toolbar to a workspace on page 306 Set a workspace current on page 289 Create a Pull-Down Menu ----- Optional: Add flyouts to organize multiple commands into a single drop-down list. ----- Create new commands as needed. ----- Add commands and controls to the toolbar and flyouts. ----- Assign the toolbar to a workspace to display it. ----- Set the modified workspace current to see the toolbar. Pull-down menus take up the least amount of space in the application frame of AutoCAD LT of all user interface elements, while providing access to a wide range of commands. You can add commands to a pull-down menu for easy to access to it from the menu bar, while not losing a large amount of space on the screen. Commands on a pull-down menu can be displayed as a single item or as a grouping of items with a submenu. Pull-down menus must be added to a workspace in Create User Interface Elements | 65
