MyButtons:
Assign up to 12 buttons to Pathagoras functions that you use frequently use. Select the buttons 'in-bulk' using the button at the far left/bottom, or set them one at a time. You can even change a label (the text to the right of the button) if you don't like the one we created.
"'MyButtons' on top" Note the checkbox toward the lower right side of the left panel. Selecting this turns Quick Picks into a quasi-'Quick Access Toolbar'. You do not have to navigate through the Pathagoras menus to get to the feature you want. Just press Alt-Q and go.
