I am an Autocad user Accustomed to use command line ...With inventor many of the commands i learned are not displayed in ribbon Panels . I know , i can make a user Panel but is there a way to choose the commands to be displayed under a tab panel like Surface or Modify?

What do you mean the commands I learned are not in the ribbon? Can you specify what commands you are talking about.

What version of Inventor are you using?

You are not seeing this in Inventor 2016-2018 while part mode.

Ruled Surface did not exist in Inventor 2015.

Many commands are "nested" within the ribbon.

Have you tried using the expand arrows under the ribbon items?

As far as I know Ruled Surface was a new feature in Inventor 2016 and doesn't exist in Inventor 2015.

Also if you right mouse click on the drop down icon and select ungroup like this, then the function is added to the Main Ribbon tab.
