The Draw toolbar displays by default docked to the left side of the interface. You can use the commands on this toolbar to place the basic elements of your symbol.
Some commands on the Draw toolbar display fly-outs when you select and hold the command button. Fly-outs access commands that vary from but are closely associated with the original command that is displayed.
A command button that has a small black arrow in the lower right corner of the button will display a fly-out. The following illustration shows the fly-outs that display when you select and hold the Circle by Center Point command button:
