Productivity Killer #1
You know the drill... you're on a roll, the creative juices are flowing... and then you have to stop and hunt for a command or a block.
You finally find it, but that 30 second distraction was all it took to derail the creative "Flow" you had going.
Distractions like this are huge productivity killers. But with tool palettes, you can nicely lay out and organize your tools so they're right where you need them, when you need them.
Productivity Killer #2
You just added a block to your drawing but once again, you forgot to switch to the correct layer before inserting it.
Whoops! The Layer isn't even there yet! Now you not only have to move the block, but you have to create the layer first .
This could have been avoided if you pulled your block from a tool palette!
