In ver 1144, there is a new toolbar feature called Custom Drawing Tools, which allows the user to define a custom toolbar button that specifies a drawing tool and tool config pair. This allows a single click on the toolbar to select both the tool and the tool config the user wants to use. For example, after setting up tool configs for a blue line (cfg1) and red line(cfg2), two toolbar buttons can be configured to pair the Line drawing tool with the two configs, so that a single click would allow the user to draw red and blue lines. To use the new function, go to the customize toolbar window. In the Available ToolBar Commands, open the Tools section, and scroll down to the "Custom Drawing Tool" entries. Select one or more and Add them to the toolbar. Hit OK to save toolbar. Once added, there are two ways to configure the button. First, you can right-click on the new button in the toolbar, which will bring up the customize dialog. You can also get to this window from the customize toolbar window, by selecting the appropriate button in the ToolBar Commands on the right side, and pressing the "Set Custom Tool" button at the bottom of the window. Once in the customize dialog, you can set the ToolBar Button Text (text on the actual button), a Tool Description, the drawing tool to use, and the drawing config to use.
