I want to put two tool buttons on the Customized Control Bar with two different tool configurations. Oh yes, I’ve read the SC docs maybe 10 times over as many months, but I’m missing something. To document my effort before posting this, I put 2 buttons on the Bar, each for the “Arrow” tool. My process was: Right click Control Bar>Customize Control Bar 1>Available Control Bar Commands>Tools>Arrow>Add. Then: Global Settings>Tools Config> Arrow Config> I set TC1-TC8 all to green line, width 1. Then: Global Settings> Customize Control Bar> Customize Control Bar 1> Select Arrow Tool/Arrow>Properties > Reset. Then changed color to Green. Clicking on the green Arrow button on Command Bar 1 allows drawing of green arrow!!! Adding Second Button: Right Click Control Bar> Customize Control Bar 1> Tools-Custom Drawing Tools> Custom Drawing Tool 4> Add> OK Then: Right Click Control Bar> Customize Control Bar 1>Select Custom Drawing Tool 4> Properties> Reset> set color to red> OK. Then: Global Settings>Tool Config>Arrow Config>[TC1 is set to green line width 1] I set TC2 to Red line width 4> Save>OK. Then: Clicking on Green button on Command bar allows drawing a red arrow. Clicking on the red button allows drawing a red arrow. Then: Right Click Control Bar> Customize Control Bar 1>Select Custom Drawing Tool 4>(selecting it)>Set Custom Tool....shows Custom Drawing Tool 4, Arrow, Tool Config 2. Then: Global Settings>Tool Config>Arrow Config>(TC1 is set to green line width 1, TC2 is set to Red line width 4) Then clicking on TC1> Load> Save> OK, green button still allows red arrow only. What am I missing? Why can’t I click on the green button and draw a green arrow and click on the red button and draw a red arrow?
