Hold Ctrl + Shift before you click on the tool you want to go onto your toolshelf.

However, I don't think that will work for the x-ray thingymabob. There is a script for that; I don't have it, but other users most likely will.

That's an external script, but I'm sure it has the same effect.

If you downloaded that script, open it up with word pad, text pad, or some other text-editing program.

Copy everything.

In maya, open your script editor, and paste the script.

Select it all (in the script editor), and middle-mouse-drag it up to your toolshelf.

Select whatever you want to be x-ray-ed, and click the MEL script shelf-button you just created.

Enjoy user added image

copy and paste this into the script editor

global proc toggleXray()
{

$currentPanel = `getPanel -withFocus`;
$state = `modelEditor -q -xray $currentPanel`;
modelEditor -edit -xray (!$state) $currentPanel;

}

highlight it all then middle mouse drag it to your shelf
