To insert blocks from the palette into your drawing, simply drag and drop the desired block. The top of the palette includes several controls, including a field for applying wildcard filters to the block names, and several options for different thumbnail sizes and list styles. These drawings and blocks also persist between drawings and sessions. The Other Drawing tab provides a way of navigating to folders from which you can choose drawings either to insert as blocks or to choose from the blocks defined in those drawings. (You can remove a block from this tab by right-clicking the block and choosing Remove from Recent List.) These persist between drawings and sessions. The Recent tab displays the most recently inserted blocks either as icons or a list, regardless of the current drawing. The Current Drawing tab displays all the block definitions in the current drawing either as icons or as a list. The palette includes three tabs: Current Drawing, Recent, and Other Drawing. The Insert dialog box has been redesigned with visual thumbnails to provide a better preview of available blocks to insert.
