customizing panel bar

Group,
There was a post recently that we are able now to customize the icons
arrangement in the panel bar, don't know who gave this tip, but it saves my
day. Now I can get rid of the flyouts in the panel bar and make it a bit
more slim, really great! Thank you!
What I'm still missing are icons for assembly constraints, mainly for insert
which I'm using most.

Regards,

Leo:

I think you can find what you are looking for "Tips & Tricks" in Sean Dotson site.

I don't think there is a tool for 3D constraints but you could use a macro /
toolbutton combo for this...

Public Sub MateConst()
SendKeys "c", True
End Sub

Public Sub AngleConst()
SendKeys "c", False
SendKeys "{RIGHT}", True
End Sub

Public Sub TangConst()
SendKeys "c", False
SendKeys "{RIGHT}", False
SendKeys "{RIGHT}", True
End Sub

Public Sub InsertConst()
SendKeys "c", False
SendKeys "{RIGHT}", False
SendKeys "{RIGHT}", False
SendKeys "{RIGHT}", True
End Sub

The insert constraint works great with the Alt-Drag technique...no icon
needed.

If your spaceball buttons are to precious (if you don't want to use a $50
button to press the Alt key), get a mouse with more buttons. You can never
have to many buttons.

Brian,
I'm aware of the Alt-drag method, but many times this doesn't fit my needs,
especially when the assy becomes rather crowded and the autoconstraint tries
to snap to every geometry on the road from first to second click...
