You'll want to add items to the palettes
you create.
To add items to a custom palette:

add.

the bottom right corner of the palette to
make more room.

move the icon or button to where
you want it.

palette:
• Hold down the Shift key, and drag
the icon or button out of the

Command dialog that lets you
choose whether you want to create
a custom palette or add a menu
