OK, in the webpage

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Faq/Draw/101

it says:

  You need the simple Fontwork tool for this operation, not the 
one with the gallery.

Then I follow the directions:

1    Go to Tools ▸ Customize ▸ Toolbars
2    Input fontwork into the Search field, with Category All 
commands
3    In the list of available commands, select Fontwork
4    In the Target dropdown, pick a toolbar you would like the 
command to appear in

So far so good, Then it says:

5    In the list of assigned commands, select a command to 
define the location of the Fontwork command

I think this only relates to the position of Fontwork on the 
list. OK. Then:

6    Click the right-pointing arrow Add item to add the Fontwork 
command to the toolbar

So I put Fontwork to the Standard toolbar in Draw. But when I 
click it there, it shows the gallery, not the simple Fpntwork 
tool. How do I get the simple Fontwork tool instead of the Gallery?
