Is this correct?

"only the toggle button will do"

(There are 2 ways to do a certain thing. One is to use a toggle button and the other is to use right/left buttons. What I'm trying to say is that we don't need the right/left buttons. We only need the toggle button because we don't need two ways.)

thanks

Your phrase is a little confusing; it could mean 'the toggle button does it; nothing else can do it'. I suggest a longer explanation: 'we don't need the R/L buttons, because the toggle button is sufficient'.

Thank you!
I will write as you showed me to make it clear.

But as you are writing "it's a little confusing", does it mean the phrase I originally wrote COULD mean what I was trying to say? (Though confusing with the other meaning.)

Thank you.
