Toolbars

By default, Abaqus/CAE displays all of the toolbars in a row underneath the main menu bar.

Figure 1. The Abaqus/CAE toolbars.

You can use the following statement to access a toolbar group from the module or toolset that defines the toolbar group: 

toolbar = self.getToolbarGroup(toolbarName)

where self is the module or toolset, and toolbarName is the name given to the toolbar when Abaqus/CAE constructs it. You can determine the names of the toolbars by selecting ToolsCustomize from the main menu bar and viewing the dialog box that appears.
