Using pop-up palettes
Pop-up palettes provide easy access to libraries of brushes, swatches, gradients, styles,
patterns, contours, and shapes. You can customize pop-up palettes by renaming and
deleting items and by loading, saving, and replacing libraries. You can also change the
display of a pop-up palette to view items by their names, as thumbnail icons, or with both
names and icons.
