- | You can control the appearance of the palettes in the [[Windows#Preferences_Palettes_Pane|Palettes preference pane]] or in the macro group configuration.

You can use the styling to build palettes that just display their icon for example, and combined with custom icons for your macros this can create a nice looking icon palette. | + | You can control the appearance of the palettes in the [[Windows#Preferences_Palettes_Pane|Palettes preference pane]] or in the macro group configuration.
