FreeOffice: These Customize options are not included in SoftMaker FreeOffice.
You can create user-defined icons at any time and then add them to the ribbon or a toolbar. Such icons can be used to start other desired programs.
To create a user-defined icon – for example, an icon to start the Windows Editor – proceed as follows:
| 1. | Choose the following command in the ribbon or menu: |
| Ribbon: File | group Settings | Customize  | Customize ribbon |
| 2. | In the dropdown list Categories, select the User category. |
| 3. | Select one of the icons from the list Commands. |
| The first three icons are pre-assigned (as examples) to the Windows Calculator, the Windows Character Map and the Windows Control Panel. Select the fourth icon, for example. |
| 4. | Click on the Edit button displayed below the list. Another dialog box appears. |
| 5. | Enter a short description of the program to be started in the Description field – for example, "Notepad". |
| 6. | Enter the complete path and file name for the program to be started in the Command line field, for example, C:\Windows\notepad.exe. |
| 7. | Optional: If you want the program to display an icon other than its default icon, enter the path and file name of the desired icon file in the Icon file field. |
| Note that icons in toolbars are slightly smaller than the usual Windows icons. |
As soon as you confirm with OK, the user-defined icon is created.
If you now want to add the user-defined icon to the ribbon or toolbar, proceed as described in the following sections:
