-When adding to the ''toolbar'' array you must set a custom value for ''type'' You must use characters that are valid in a function name and should capitalize the first character.  When the toolbar is constructed it looks at the value of ''type'' and appends it to the string ''addBtnAction'' before calling your code.  So if you set ''type'' to ''Click'' the toolbar will call ''addBtnActionClick'' This is an important note because if two plugins use the same ''type'' they will conflict with each other and cause strange behavior (such as both buttons doing the exact same thing).+When adding to the ''toolbar'' array you must set a custom value for ''type'' You must use characters that are valid in a function name and should capitalize on the first character.  When the toolbar is constructed it looks at the value of ''type'' and appends it to the string ''addBtnAction'' before calling your code.  So if you set ''type'' to ''Click'' the toolbar will call ''addBtnActionClick'' This is an important note because if two plugins use the same ''type'' they will conflict with each other and cause strange behavior (such as both buttons doing the exact same thing).

 +===== CSS Spritemap =====
 +
 +If you need to reduce the number of server requests for downloading micro-icons, you can use the following style fix.\\
 +  - 15 icons of the 20 in the ''/lib/images/toolbar/'' folder are used in a constant order and can be combined into a vertical ribbon named **spritemap**.
 +    - You can take the finished spritemap [[https://comicslate.org/lib/images/toolbar/toolbar.png|here]] and put it in ''/lib/images/toolbar/'' named as ''toolbar.png''.
 +  - CSS used to show a certain point on spritemap.
 +    - Add the following CSS rules to your local style file ''/conf/userstyle.less'' or template's style file ''/lib/tpl/<name>/css/design.less'':
 +<code css>
 +#tool__bar {

 +Maybe one day this fix will be obsolete due to the introduction of spritemap in the Dokuwiki.
