This tutorial shows you the customization of toolbars. Tools (inclusive Macro-tools) can used in different workbenches. In an example a Macro becomes a Macro-tool by creation of a '''Menu text''', a '''Tool tip''' and an '''Icon'''. Afterwards this Macro-tool becomes part of an extra toolbar in a workbench.
This tutorial walks you through how to create a Toolbar button and one or more buttons that connect you to your favourite macros or to other associated links whether there is a custom icon or not.
