Command list box. There are many different categories that you can select
from, for example
■ All Commands. Displays all of the commands for each of the loaded
customization files.
■ Custom Commands. Displays the user defined commands that have been
added to the loaded customization files. These commands are not part of
a customization file that ships with AutoCAD.
■ Controls Elements. Displays the special controls that can be added to a
toolbar or ribbon panel, such as drop-down lists, sliders, and other controls.
Available commands and controls are displayed in the bottom of the Command
List pane. The names of the available commands, the image that is assigned
to a command, and the name of the customization group that the command
is assigned to are displayed. When the cursor hovers over top of a command,
the macro assigned to the command is displayed in a tooltip.
At the top of the Command List pane is the Command Filter field which
allows you to filter the Command list based on the text string entered. The
text string is matched with any part of a command name, and the commands
with the matching text strings are displayed in the Command list box.
