Standard and custom images can be assigned
to a command.
When a command is added
to a ribbon or toolbar, the assigned image is displayed on the ribbon
or toolbar button, or if added to a pull-down menu, the image is
displayed next to the menu item.
AutoCAD comes with
a library of standard images that are used for the standard commands;
these can be assigned to your own custom commands. You can create
your own custom commands using the Button Editor dialog box found
in the Customize User Interface Editor or an external image editor. For
more information about creating custom images for your commands,
see
Create and Edit Custom Images for Commands.
