Toolbars

Toolbars are available for most SOLIDWORKS tools, and also for add-in products.

Named toolbars assist you in performing specific design tasks such as applying surfaces or drawing curves.

Because the CommandManager contains the most frequently used tools for the currently selected document, toolbars are turned off by default.

You can display:

• SOLIDWORKS toolbars
• Toolbars for add-in applications

In addition, the following special toolbars help you work more productively:

• Context toolbars
• Shortcut bars

You can customize:
