Hello,

I am new to Sierra Charts. I have everything set up how I would like it to be, but I am having difficulty understanding how to select and deselect the buttons I have created for tool configurations on the control bar. I can access the functions I want to through the 'tools' menu, but I would like to have the buttons operate the selected functions for simplicity and speed.

Specifically, I have 3 buttons that are grayed out unless I have selected them in the 'tools' menu. A volume by price study, and 2 different horizontal lines. Can you please explain how to toggle these functions on and off using the buttons?
