We have just upgraded to 2012 and my I want to add my own custom menu/tool bar like I did in 2007. Is this possible in 2012 and how do I do it. I do not want to revise a standard menu due to the possibility of others using my machine and they only are confortable with the standard one
I know how to add and subtract from standard menus. I would like to add a new one as 'Top' , "Left" or something and add standard commands to it for my most used commands. There are a lot of commands I do not use regularly and do not have a large monitor to show all the bars I need. Where only 1 is required for 95% of my work flow.
I do not see a tab for add custome menu.

Good afternoon George,
You may want to use the fly out tool bar and the mouse gestures,

George,
I can't answer your question, but lots of folks are really fond of the S key shortcut, where you can add all the commands you wish.

Thanks Jerry
Not as good as before, but way better than having a large amount of tool bars open. I can now see more of my work space and the popups dissapear when not in use. for show and tell.

Before you get too hung up on the old style space-hogging toolbars, try using the S key shortcut. It is customizable for each mode (sketch, part, assy & drawing), effectively giving 4 custom toolbars right at your cursor.
George,
Make sure once you have your toolbars setup the way you want them to save youe settings using copy settings wizard.
This way you can preserve these settings for future and other machines you might want to do the same thing on.
Hi George,
You can create custom toolbars still. Go to tools/customize/command and look at the command manager. It has a "new tab" icon similar to excel. Click on that and name your new toolbar. Next drag and drop whatever commands you want on there.
Good morning George,
Welcome to the forum,
Go to Tools/Customize/Commands.
There are a lot of changes since 2007
Later,
John
