Use Tool Palettes to Organize Blocks
Concept Quick Reference
 
 
 

You can use tool palettes to organize blocks that are stored in one drawing file or separate drawing files.

Once you've added a block tool to a tool palette, you can easily insert the block reference in your drawing by dragging it from the tool palette to the drawing or by clicking and placing it in the drawing. For information about using tool palettes to organize and insert blocks, see Create and Use Tools from Objects and Images.
