Utilities
The Utilities add-in is a pulldown menu for smaller focused commands that are useful on the ribbon but do not need a full standalone panel. Each utility is independent, and new ones can be added over time without changing how you access the rest of the set.
Getting Started
Section titled “Getting Started”Find Utilities on the Amorphous ribbon tab in the Utilities panel.
Click the Utilities pulldown to see the available commands.
