Button Groups: In addition to buttons, you can add drop-down lists to your toolbars. These drop-down lists may use less space, and sometimes a list is more efficient for a particular group. The commands I like to keep as a button group are Export, Toolbars and Palettes. These button groups are listed with all other commands in the Customize dialog box. They look different. There is no icon on left and a tiny arrow on right.
Reset Toolbars: Reset a toolbar to its default setting by right clicking a toolbar to Customize. Select the Toolbars tab. Choose a toolbar from the list and click the Reset button or click Reset All. A warning box will pop up asking if you are sure!
There are a number of other options in the Customize dialog box that you should review. Explore each tab. Feel free to write or visit the forum if you have questions.
We have only discussed the Standard toolbar today. You can also customize the Effects, Photo, Script and Webtoolbars. You can even add more tools to the Tools toolbar or create your own custom toolbar. We'll create a custom, special-purpose toolbar in future additions to this "Customizing Your Workspace in PSP X" tutorial series. We'll also go over saving your workspace so that you can have a different custom workspace for photo editing, vector drawing or art media!
Happy Trails! Arizona Kate
