Hold down the Shift key and drag a button from one panel to the custom panel.


Method 2

Add a menu item: This procedure is the same as creating a new custom palette;
 

• Open Painter 12 and select the Window menu

 

 

 

• Select Custom Palette

 

 

• Next, select Add Command

 

• Choose the custom panel from the Add To list box
