Configuring the "New Multitool" window

<NEWMULTITOOLCONFIGURATION> tag
You use the "New Multitool" dialog to supply a new multitool with specific multitool data before
creating the multitool or loading it into to a magazine location. Multitool data typically includes
the number of multitool locations and spacing between locations, as these parameters cannot
be changed once the multitool has been created. The same applies to the multitool size and/
or multitool location type as to the tool size and tool location type. These parameters, too,
cannot be changed once they have been loaded into the tool. It is also a good idea to display
the multitool name in this window.
In the <NEWMULTITOOLCONFIGURATION>tag, specify the parameters that you wish to
have displayed in the "New Multitool" dialog.
