Note: The MEP Sample Palette catalogs include a number of tool palettes that you can use or customize. You can access the Sample Palette catalogs from the Content Browser. Click Home tab Build panel Tools drop-down Content Browser .

You can create tool palettes directly in the Content Browser, and drag and drop palettes from the library to your tool palette set. When you add a palette to your tool palette set in this manner, you can link it to the Content Browser so that the software refreshes the palette automatically whenever it detects changes to the palette in the Content Browser. Alternatively, you can refresh the palette manually.
