File-> close and return,
Right-click the intelliisense macro and choose set as record item.
Tool> Custom> toolbar> new,
Enter a name you like.
Command tab-> category-> macro,
Drag and Drop the five names starting with intelliisense to the toolbar you just created.
Right-click the button to rename and change the icon.

Functions of each button:
Intelliisense on returns to normal state, enabling intelliisense;
Intelliisense off most intelliisense functions are disabled, which is almost the same as renaming feacp. dll;
Intelliisense noupdate disables automatic updates to the intelliisense database;
The intelliisense status displays the current state of the settings;
Deletencbandreload closes the solution, deletes the NCB file, and reloads the solution.

Note:

Practice has proved that noupdate is better than off;

 

The modification of each button is permanent and has nothing to do with the solution;
When no solution is loaded, the modification is invalid.
