Creating a new toolbar button/s with custom commands...Creating a new toolbar button/s with custom commands...(OP)
Is this possible in Draftsight? I see I am able to create my own toolbars with the existing commands. My question is, can you define a script much like you can in AutoCAD and assign it to a custom button. It does not look you can, but I'm just getting into DS and I may have overlooked a solution.

We're on AutoCAD 2002. My company does not want to upgrade to the latest and greatest, so something like
DraftSight will be my only alternative.
Thanks again.
