| <h1 class="topictitle1">Customizing the Web palette</h1> |
| <p>The Web tools palette lets you drag an item from a drawer in the |
| palette view and drop the item to the JSP or HTML file that you are editing. |
| To customize the palette, complete the following steps:</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li class="skipspace">If the palette is not open, click |
| <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Window</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Show View</span> |
| > <span class="uicontrol">Other</span> > <span class="uicontrol">Basic</span> > |
| <span class="uicontrol">Palette</span></span>.</li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>Right-click inside a drawer in the Palette view to display the |
| pop-up menu. From this menu, you can select <b>Layout</b>, <b>Use Large Icons</b>, <b>Context</b>, <b>Customize</b>, |
| and <b>Settings</b>.</span></li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>Select <b>Layout</b> to adjust the following options</span> |
| <ul> |
| <li><b>Columns</b> - the number of columns depends on the width of the particular |
| view </li> |
| <li><b>List</b> - items appear with minimal description</li> |
| <li><b>Icons only</b> - each item appears as an icon with no text</li> |
| <li><b>Details</b> - descriptions of each item are included</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>Select <b>Use Large Icons</b> to increase the size of the items |
| that appear in each drawer.</span></li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>Select <b>Context</b> to determine which drawers appear.</span> By default, the drawers that appear are automatically determined based |
| on the type of file you are editing. For example, HTML context contains drawers |
| appropriate for HTML pages. To display other types of drawers, select a different |
| context. You should use caution when selecting a context, as the type of objects |
| you add to the page may not be appropriate for the given page type. </li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>Select <b>Customize</b> to change the items (and their attributes) |
| that appear in a drawer. Customize enables you to perform any of the following |
| actions:</span> <ul><li>Move or delete items within the drawer. Use caution when deleting an item |
| because you cannot add it back.</li> |
| <li>Change the names and descriptions of items within the drawer</li> |
| <li>Specify a default drawer to be opened when the Palette view first appears</li> |
| <li>Hide items within a drawer</li> |
| <li>Change attributes for an item within a drawer</li> |
| <li>Add separators</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
| <li class="skipspace"><span>Select <b>Settings</b> to change the following:</span> |
| <ul><li>Font settings</li> |
| <li>Layout settings</li> |
| <li>Drawer options, such as whether to close a drawer when another is opened</li> |
| </ul> |
| </li> |
