In order to get the tool palette back, please do the following :
- Close Advance Steel.
- Open Registry Editor (type “Regedit” in Windows start menu dialog)
- Browse to the following registry key : HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Graitec\AdvanceSteel\2013\Settings\Dialogs\GrPalette
- Delete the “GrPaletteData” registry key inside this folder.
- Start Advance Steel.
The GrPaletteData folder you’ve just deleted will be recreated during Advance Steel startup, with default values for the palette size, which will allow AS to display it correctly when started. With AS 2014 this issue will no longer appear.
