Making a tool palette

[Marty Knapp]

Thanks Chipp and Jan,

I don't want to edit or replace the LC tool palette, just create 
something similar for a project where I'm trying to imitate Visio where 
you drag symbols off a palette onto your worksheet. I would have half a 
dozen different buttons that the user could drag onto a stack window 
where the button would be created (perhaps from a template button).

Has anyone done something similar that I could look at?

Thanks again,
Marty Knapp

So I copied revtools.rev to the desktop and changed its name there and tried to open it, but of course LC wants to know what to do with the existing tool palette. I did try closing that before opening my copy but got the same message. I want to take a peek at the scripting to learn how to make my own - what should I do, or does someone have another idea for me?
