The Quick Access Toolbar has been around since AutoCAD 2009. It's also available in AutoCAD Electrical 2010. It's up here at the top of the screen up above your Ribbon tabs next to your Application Menu. Now you have the Standard commands on the Quick Access Toolbar such as New, Open, Save. You also have Undo and Redo. You also have here, Plot and here you have Project Manager. This is specific to AutoCAD Electrical, so if I click there Project Manager will come on, however it's already on. Let's close it first and then click on Project Manager. It brings it back into the drawing area. That's an AutoCAD Electrical Standard function - Project Manager - and it's on the Quick Access Toolbar as well as the Project tab here on the Ribbon as mentioned in the previous Introduction. Now other features that are available on the Quick Access Toolbar are, as mentioned previously, Previous Project Drawing and Next Drawing. So if I go to 001 here and open it, there it is there. I can go to the Next drawing from the Quick Access Toolbar. I can go back a drawing, Previous Project drawing and it takes me back again. So, those are basically backwards and forwards in the Project Manager. Now if I continue here on the Quick Access Toolbar you'll see you have a Surfer. This surfs to related references of an item you select. So, as soon as I click on Surfer you'll see: Select tag for Surfer trace or Enter to type it. So if I click there on a tag you'll see there I'm Surfing now, I can pick a new list, I can Freshen, I can Edit, or I can just Close, so I can Surf any of these tags that are on any of my electrical drawings. Now, there's one final button here on the Quick Access Toolbar, this allows me to Edit the Quick Access Toolbar and customize it. So you'll see there I can customize my Quick Access Toolbar by changing Settings. So you'll see there, look, More Commands, Show Menu Bar, Show Below the Ribbon. I've also got Plot, Redo, Undo, Save, Open and New. Notice that things like the Surfer aren't on there, but I could go and find those by clicking on More Commands here. This would actually open up the CUI, the Customized User Interface Tool within AutoCAD Electrical 2010 and you can see there now I can go and find a command within AutoCAD itself and actually put that onto my Quick Access Toolbar. So if I pick, say, 3D Rotate and I OK that now, that will actually apply that now to the Quick Access Toolbar. So if I click there now you'll see that there's nothing there at the moment. What I need to do there is Refresh that by opening and closing AutoCAD itself. I'm not going to do that in this particular case but what I will do there is make sure that 3D Rotate is actually removed when it appears. That's easy to do. I'll just OK that again and you'll see it's still not there. That's because this is full at the moment and obviously I can't add any more. But if I removed one of these by right-clicking I can remove it from the Quick Access Toolbar. I can remove Plot, for example. I can remove any of them and I've also got Customized Quick Access Toolbar there again. So you can see there, the Quick Access Toolbar is literally what it says. It's a toolbar that gives you quick access to some of the more fundamental commands in AutoCAD Electrical 2010.
