2 In the dialog that appears, make any necessary changes:
 To add buttons to the toolbar: Drag a button’s icon from the dialog to the toolbar.
 To remove buttons from the toolbar: Drag them out of the toolbar, or Control-click the
button you want to remove and choose Remove Item from the shortcut menu.
 To change the order of the buttons in the toolbar: Drag a button to a new position.
 To set the toolbar to a default configuration: Drag the default set of buttons and tools
