Drawing Tools within the Symbols

In SS4, I noticed there are some Drawing Tools in the symbols (didn't even know this was possible) which I found pretty useful for those specific Drawing Tool selections I use frequently instead of having to right click the tools/walls/caves, and select the specific drawing tool need.
How can I add other Drawing Tools to the symbols? if so, how?

Thanks!

    This is quite common under CC3+.

    Easiest way to do it is to open up the symbol catalog you wish to include drawing tools in for editing, and then run the IMPORTDTOSYM command. This should pop up a dialog allowing you to browse to tour drawing tools folder. Select any tool from there, and hit Open, this will import all drawing tools in that folder into the symbol catalog. You can then sort, rename and delete those you don't need.

    You can also manually create a new symbol, go to the options for that symbol in the symbol manager, and place a checkmark for the Drawtool option, then provide the name of the tool you wish to use in the format style name\drawtool file name (without the extension)
