Thanks for the info.

I am still puzzled however. I did find the "Circles and Ovals" entry in the Customize popup. When I select that and click OK (se attached screenshot) the popup closes, but apparently nothing has changed, i.e. the toolbar is not available on my drawing, nor is it added to the list of possible toolbars in the View drop-down. Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks again for the response.

Ludo.

Hi,

I am using OO 2.0.3 and have questions about using toolbars in Draw:

1. The help document explains that one can add toolbars to the list under
"View" - "Toolbar" by selecting Customize.  When I do that on that pop-up
screen, e.g. the "Circles and Ovals", and click OK, that toolbar is not
added to the View list.  Any one can explain what I am doing wrong?

2. The help document describe an "Ellipses" and a "Tools" toolbar . I can
not find either of them in the "Customize" screen drop-down menu.  Are
these not included in the regular installation program?  Where/how can I
add these?

As you are not subscribed you may not have seen that:

Hi, Ludo.

I just tried it.  View -> Toolbars -> Customize

At the top of the pane that pops up is a drop-down list that seems to
start on Standard; it also a "Circles and Ovals" pick if that is what
you are looking for.  I don't see anything labeled "Tools" or similar.

To add an item to a toolbar, choose the toolbar to which you want to add
an item, "Picture" for instance.  Then click "Add...", hilight the
category and command on the new popup, then click "Add" on that new popup.

You can select another toolbar to add items to while the "Add..." popup
is up, so if you want to add a particular item to a number of toolbars,
add it to the first, select another toolbar on the first popup, and
click "Add" again.  When you have added all items you want, click
"Close" and you should be set.  You can see the menu items added to the
toolbar immediately if the toolbar is displayed.
