You can't add new "show/hide" buttons. There are only three. Originally they were used to flip between control dials e.g. Heading/Rudder. In the GUI I re-used them as follows:

Show/Hide Control Dials
Toggle TDC Autoupdate On/Off
Toggle TDC/Attackdisc

You need two trigger zones for each trigger.

The first you already have. That one is the "horizontal" trigger zone. Now you need a second, which is attached (via ParentID) to the first, which is the vertical trigger zone - i.e. it is tall and narrow (the desired width of the trigger area) and slides vertically.

Once that is done you need to change the parent ID of the chart to point at the vertical trigger zone instead of the horizontal one (and probably you'll need to re-adjust the position of the chart).

There are several examples of this in the OLC GUI for you to refer to e.g. the CE Report Dials, the Flaggen Chart, etc.

This should help explain it.

The black rectangle is the screen. The red one is your desired trigger area. The blue areas represent sliding menu groups, and the grey thing is what you want to appear/disappear when the player mouses over the trigger area.
