Short Explanation about Tool Palettes in AutoCAD.

I think users provide best answer of this question specially Vaqar Ali Sayyed.

You can build tool palettes using several methods.

• Use the tool palette shortcut menu to create a new, empty palette.
• Use a DesignCenter shortcut menu to create a tool palette tab with predetermined content.

You can add tools to a new or existing tool palette using several methods.

• Drag tools from your drawing. Tools include geometric objects, dimensions, fills, blocks, xrefs, raster images, and tables. You can also add lights, cameras, visual styles, and materials (not available in AutoCAD LT).
• Drag drawings, blocks, and hatches from DesignCenter. Drawings that are added to a tool palette are inserted as blocks when dragged into the drawing.
• Drag toolbar buttons from the Customize dialog box.
• Drag commands from the Command List pane on the Customize User Interface (CUI) Editor.
• Paste tools from one tool palette to another.

Once you've created a palette, modify it to suit your needs:

• Rearrange the tools by dragging or sorting them.
• Add text and separator lines.
• Move a tool palette tab up and down the list of tabs by using the shortcut menu or Customize dialog box.
• Delete tool palettes that you no longer need. (Tool palettes that are deleted are lost unless they are first saved by exporting them to a file.)
• Set the path to your tool palettes on the Files tab in the Options dialog box. This path can be to a shared network location.
• Associate a customizable tool palette group with each panel on the ribbon.
• Change the palette's read-only status in the Palettes folder. If a tool palette is set to be read-only, a lock icon is displayed in a lower corner of the tool palette. This indicates that you cannot modify the tool palette beyond changing its display settings and rearranging the icons.

Dear Friend,

1. 1. Navigate to the tool palette file (ATC file) in the following location:
      • Windows 7 or Windows 8: <drive>:/users/<user name>/AppData/Roaming/Autodesk/<product name>/<release>/<language>/Support/ToolPalette/Palettes
   2. Right-click the file and select Properties.
   3. On the General tab, select Read-only and click OK.

A lock icon is displayed in a lower corner of the tool palette.

How to customize tool palettes that contain commands, blocks, and other content.

2. Do one of the following:
   • Right-click an item in the DesignCenter tree view. Click Create Tool Palette. The new tool palette contains the drawings, blocks, or hatches from the item you selected.
   • Right-click the background in the DesignCenter content area. Click Create Tool Palette. The new tool palette contains the drawings, blocks, or hatches from the DesignCenter content area.
   • Right-click a drawing in the DesignCenter tree view or content area. Click Create Tool Palette of Blocks. The new tool palette contains the blocks from the drawing you selected.

   You can drag additional drawings, blocks, or hatches from the DesignCenter content area to the tool palette.

1. Right-click a blank area inside the Tool Palettes window and select Add Separator.
2. If necessary, drag the separator to the appropriate location in the window.
