Is there a way to quick switch electronic to mechanical shutter?

I've been looking to find a way to effortlessly set this up. With custom controls there doesnt seem to be a shutter switching function (since it is dependent on your drive mode?), and thus takes a number of button presses to turn off as such, coming from mechanical mode:

  • switch drive mode to single shooting/non-continuous
  • menu > electronic shutter on
  • menu > electronic shutter off
  • choose/switch another drive mode is re-enabled

It's pretty clunky, I'm wondering if any of you guys have trick/other method/etc.
Cheers
