AUTOCAD 2008 PREVIEW GUIDE 

 

Figure 10. Redefine drawing block with tool palette block definition 

When you modify the location of tools on a tool palette, their order is maintained in the tool catalog (unless the 

catalog file is read-only) as well as in the profile. This enables you to share your tool palettes without having to 

manually reorganize the tools.  

The new TPNAVIGATE command enables you to set a tool palette or tool palette group current using the 

command line interface. 

Customizing the User Interface 

The Customize User Interface (CUI) dialog box has been updated, making it more powerful and easier to use. 

Enhancements to pane headers, borders, splitter bars, buttons, and tool tips make it easier for you to 

understand and manipulate the controls and data in the CUI dialog box. With the CUI dialog box open, you can 

drag and drop buttons directly on a toolbar to rearrange or remove them. In addition, you can Copy and Paste 

or Duplicate CUI elements such as commands, menus, toolbars from within the CUI dialog box. 

The Command List pane includes a new search tool that enables you to filter command names as you type. 

You can view the macro associated with a command by simply passing your cursor over the command name 

and you can drag and drop commands from the Command List directly onto a toolbar.  

The CUI customization tree enables you to create a new toolbar based on an existing menu. If you drag and 

drop a menu element to the top level of the Toolbars node, AutoCAD creates a new toolbar; if you drop it onto 

another toolbar, AutoCAD creates a flyout. 

A new Dashboard node enables you to customize panels in the AutoCAD Dashboard. Customizing a 

Dashboard panel is very similar to customizing toolbars, both within the CUI dialog box and on the Dashboard 

itself. In addition, you can create a new row of tools in a dashboard panel by dragging a toolbar from the 

Toolbar node to the Dashboard node. 

When you select a toolbar or dashboard from the customization tree, a preview pane displays a customizable 

representation of the selected element. You can drag commands from the customization tree or command list 

directly into the toolbar/panel preview. And you can drag and drop tools in the preview pane to rearrange or 

                                              10
