Test case: 1. In the main menu, choose File > New File... 2. In the Categories list, select PHP. In the File Types list, choose PHP Web Page. Click Next. 3. Accept default values by pressing Finish button. EXPECTED RESULT: A new PHP web page is created and opened in the editor. A button to open the palette window is shown on the right, depending on the user's preferences. Observed result: No Palette button is shown anywhere in IDE. I tried to reset all toolbars and windows but still no button shown. Palette is only available from menu Window->Palette.

You can customize the Toolbar (View > Toolbars > Customize). At first, just open the Customize Toolbars dialog as the above. Then, just Drag and Drop the "Window > Palette" to Your Toolbar. Thanks.
