The buttons provided behave in a manner similar to the normal EazyDraw tool palettes. Click a button to make that graphic the current creation graphic for the current front EazyDraw drawing window. Then use the mouse to move the cursor over the drawing window, the cursor changes to the Rectangular Creation cursor. Then click and drag on the drawing window at the desired target location for the new graphic. The library graphic element associated with the tool button is created on the target drawing. It is drawn enclosed by the rectangle specified by the drag motion. You may move in any direction, the rectangle’s content will flip or mirror to follow your motion. The process is completed when the mouse button is released.

The buttons are by default one-shot in nature. After one graphic is created the selected button is cleared and the main arrow tool cursor is re-activated. A double click of a button will override this behavior. After a double click the target button remains active, in this way you may create several copies of the same library element. This "sticky" mode must be overtly cleared by clicking another EazyDraw tool, typically by clicking the default Arrow tool.

Some library elements may not represent actual graphics, they may be containers of parameter settings. In this case the button icon is shown with a light yellow backdrop and bluish dashed inner border. These buttons have a different behavior. First at least one graphic on the EazyDraw drawing window needs to be selected. When a graphic is selected, the library element’s represented parameter settings are applied to the target graphic by a single click of the button.

Some library elements may represent other "built-in" EazyDraw tools. You may add one of these built-in tools to a library palette by dragging the tool from the corresponding tool palette to a location on this library palette. These tools retain their standard creation behavior when added to a library tool palette - they work just the same as they do from their fixed standard tool palette. They do not adapt the Rectangular creation mode. These parameter set containers are managed by the settings on the Transfer Palette which is found on the Format main menu. The library needs to return to the Name or Element presentation mode in order to manage these settings for the graphic element associated with the button.

Use drag and drop to move elements to different locations in the library. Simply click and drag a button to the desired location.

This tool palette is resizable, use the small lined triangle area, bottom right of the palette, to click and drag to adjust the size of the palette. After a resize, a stepper control is shown on the top left of the palette. This stepper is used to change the number of columns, when in the vertical mode, or number of rows in the horizontal mode. The horizontal or vertical mode is determined size the palette and whether it is wider than it is tall. When you are happy with the number of columns (or rows) use the OK button to dismiss the button. The size of each tool button is adjusted to fill the area of the palette. In all cases all elements of the library are displayed in this mode, if necessary buttons will drawn smaller and more columns or rows will be added to place buttons for all elements.

Drag and Drop can be used to rearrange the order of the buttons on your palette. Drag and drop can be used to copy a button over to another user library palette. Drag and Drop does may not be used to drag the associated graphic element to an EazyDraw drawing. If you desire to place library elements on drawings via drag and drop, use the Element presentation for the library palette.

The last button, lower right, shown on the palette is a constant for all library tool palettes. It is not defined by a library element. Use this button to return to either the Name or Element presentation view of the library. A single click will accomplish the mode change. You will probably want to use one of these other modes when building or making changes to your library.
