Tool Palettes
Use the tool palettes as organized menus. Place them on the right side, if you are right-handed. Add your favorite commands, dimstyles, textstyles, hatches, blocks and materials on tool palettes. Save time by creating a library of blocks and dynamic blocks. On the tool palette you can use autohide, if you want more space on the screen. I recommend the following: Right-click in the bigger gray area on tool palette. Next click "Sort By Name", this will display you list in alphabetic order. In the same shortcut menu, adjust the size of images and text in "View Options". Furthermore, I recommend that you move all tool palettes into palette groups. This way the tool palettes are organized and it is easier to find them. Again right-click in the bigger gray area on a tool palette, now click Customize Palettes. In the dialog box, move all the tool palettes from the left side into palette groups on right side.
