Adding a SmartObject to a palette button pop-up menu

Use this type of entry to add an object to the Object Palette’s pop-up menu for an object type. The new object you define also appears in the Object Palette’s submenu for the object type. This type of entry also allows you to select an object without first using the Choose dialog box. Before you create this type of entry, make sure that you have created the object type (see the "Adding a button to the Object Palette" section):
