Choosing Icons for Toolbar Commands

Toolbar buttons usually have icons, not words, on them, but not all commands have associated icons.

To choose an icon for a command, select the command and click Modify → Change icon. On the Change Icon dialog (Figure 223), you can scroll through the available icons, select one, and click  OK  to assign it to the command.

To use a custom icon, create it in a graphics program and import it into AOO by clicking the Import button on the Change Icon dialog. Custom icons must be 16 x 16 or 26 x 26 pixels in size and cannot contain more than 256 colors.
