The Feature Tray contains all feature templates loaded into the Editor at start-up.  These templates include all out-of-the-box templates installed with the Absyntax framework plus any detected third-party add-ins.
 
Select a template, then either drag it onto the design surface or, with the Feature Tray Tool selected, click on the design surface at the location where a new feature is to be added.
 
The Feature Tray is shown by selecting View Feature Tray from the menu bar.
