I have Robohelp 2015. Is there a way to create a custom button next to the print button in the azure blue layout? What is the easiest way to do it?

The only way to do this, is to add your button in the HTML of the screen layout. The styling is done through CSS. To make it easier, I recommend you create a new style sheet and define your button there. It will avoid you having to go into the large CSS of the Azure layout.

Willam,

I'm interested in adding a custom button, too.  I'd like to be able to use the expand/collapse functionality of your toolbarscripts.js file with a ResponsiveHTML5 layout.  First, is this possible?  Does your script work with HTML5 layouts?  Second, is there any easy way to add the functionality?  For example, if we are not planning on using the Glossary icon/functionality (and I see where we can use the layout customization panel in RH 2015 to change the associated images), is there a way to assign your script's show/hide functionality to work with that button?  Thanks again for your work on that script!

Tim

This expand/collapse currently only works with Multiscreen HTML5. For responsive, additional scripting is needed to make it work in the topics as well. Updating the script has been on my backlog for a long time already, but I just haven't got around to it.
