MATLAB: How to add a shortcut to a documentation page to the Quick Access Toolbar

accessMATLABquickshortcut

I would like to create a shortcut button for a specific documentation page so that I do not need to navigate through the documentation to find it repeatedly. It would be most helpful to have this button in the Quick Access Toolbar in MATLAB. 
How can I achieve this?

This can be achieved by doing the following:
  1. Navigate to the desired documentation page within MATLAB (not through the online documentation).
  2. Click the star icon in the top-left corner of the Help browser and select "Add to Favorites...".
  3. In the resulting Favorites Editor, give the shortcut any label or icon you desire. Set the category field to "Shortcuts".
  4. Click "Save". This will add a shortcut to this documentation page to the "Shortcuts" tab in MATLAB.
  5. From the Shortcuts tab in MATLAB, right click on the newly created shortcut and select "Add to Quick Access Toolbar". 
This will add a shortcut button to the desired documentation page to the Quick Access Toolbar.
