Toolbars
Toolbars in AutoCAD Architecture workspaces contain buttons that you click to initiate commands, change settings,
or access other features that you might often need during a drawing session. The icon on a toolbar button indicates its
function. To display a tooltip with the button name, you move the cursor over the button. This also displays a description
of the button’s function at the lower-left corner of the workspace on the application status bar.
Examples of frequently used toolbars
By default, toolbars are displayed in the toolbar area just below the menu bar, but you can drag them into the drawing
area or completely out of the drawing window if desired. Note that the title of the toolbar displays only when the
toolbar is positioned outside of the toolbar area. You can also dock toolbars to an edge in the drawing area, hide them,
resize them, or create your own. For detailed instructions on customizing the display of toolbars, see the Toolbars topic
in the AutoCAD Help.
The following toolbars are displayed in the toolbar area by default:
■
Workspaces
■
Standard
■
Navigation
■
Layer Properties
■
Shapes
■
Draw Order
■
Modify
To display any of the others, right-click any toolbar currently on display, and click the name of the toolbar you want
to see. Or you can right-click in the toolbar area (not on a toolbar), click ADT, and then click a toolbar name.
