TortoiseHg shelve-update-unshelve shortcut

Question

Using TortoiseHg Workbench, almost every time I pull from a remote repository, I have uncommitted code changes so that I need to shelve them before I update and then unshelve them again.

Is there a way to do this all in one click? I seem to remember being able to do this when I used Git (perhaps with GitHub for Windows).

@Lazy Badger Do you have a link for any documentation or examples on how to customise the toolbar with my own buttons. I can't find anything except some broken links. — whistling_marmot, May 06 '16 at 08:49
For me adding button seems as *obvious thing* in THG's GUI, sorry — Lazy Badger, May 06 '16 at 19:06

Follow-up or comments

Tried to add button to THG GUI

Defined new tool in Tools menu

Added to toolbar (failed, no buttom on toolbar, I suppose, due to icon size /small/ - using path to big icon file instead of embedded may change visibility result)

Tried to add to Revision Context Menu and use added feature

As you can see - button added, but command failed (for unknown reason): using plain hg for PATH\hg.exe is recommendation from "Define tool" window from THG
