I'm using AutoCAD 2015. While I'm drawing, I spend most of my time on the Home ribbon tab. I like the Zoom ribbon button, but it is on the View tab. Is there any way to move the Zoom button to the Home tab, so I don't have to switch ribbon tabs to hit it? Alternatively, is there any way to add the Zoom button (or at least just a Zoom Extents or a Zoom All button) to the bottom toolbar, or somewhere where it will be visible all the time?

I am aware that I can do a Zoom Extents just by typing "Z-Enter-E-Enter", but I like my toolbar button. :)

AutoCAD has a very nice ability to customize the user interface. Essentially you build a custom tab with the commands that you would like in your own configuration.
