#Customizing Bars
In Customization mode, you can customize bars and the representation of its commands.
If you want to add a specific command to a bar, you can search for this command in the Commands page in the Customization Window, and drag the command to the bar:
If a command is displayed within another bar or menu, you can drag it to the target bar. If the CTRL key is pressed down, the command will be copied; otherwise, it will be moved to a new position.
For each command, you can customize its representation via the command's customization menu (invoked by right-clicking):
| Menu Item | Description |

| Reset | Resets the command's display style to default. |
| Delete | Deletes the command from the bar. |
