Latest office add-in icons showing in the the overflow menu in the outlook explorer view. But I want to show this in default without setting any mail settings. ( check the attach image, I want show task bar button shows in the message surface area )
Do I need to add any changes in manifest file ?
We currently do not support pinning on an email surface from the Manifest. It can only be done through the settings option inside of Outlook Web app and is specific to the client. Add-ins are also pinned on the email surface by default when installing from the marketplace from Outlook Web App (unless the user specifically unpins it)

I developed an add-in built with yo generator (Node.js) that works as a configurator which enables the outlook compose to enable/disable sending a copy of the new email to a custom url on-send.
There's a control button added that says 'Toggle Send to cCRM' but I would prefer a toggle text dynamically from 'Enable send to cCRM' to 'Disable send to cCRM' and vice-versa when clicking the control button to improve UI experience. Is it possible to accomplish?
Nope. Toggle buttons as well as callbacks are not supported in web add-ins. See Control types for more information.

I am developing an Outlook Web Addin using Fabric UI.I have run into couple of issues which are given as follows:
The following is my outlook web addin screen shot:
1:
Issue #1 : I do not have access to addin title "My Test Outlook Web Addin" from within my code. I want to change the CSS properties of the title but I do not seem to have access. This title is defined in an XML file.
Issue #2: I have "Save" and "Cancel" buttons. In their call backs I need to perform some task and close the addin dialog. But I am not able to close the addin dialog. I can close the addin by clicking 'X' icon on the top, but not from within my code.
Issue #3, How to get file types icon with plane JS? (https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric#/styles/web/file-type-icons)
I am not using React or AngularJS. I am using Core fabric UI with plane JS.
Any help on these issues and on how to control properties of outlook web addin is highly appreciated.
Thanks!

How to add button to main menu behind "Mark all as read"
instead of showing button inside email body read document but it doesn't help me to find solution,
You cannot get your add-in icon displayed in any place you like. The add-in controls are defined by manifest and displayed in predefined locations of particular client (Outlook Web, Outlook desktop for Windows or Mac, Mobile). Up to developers (Microsoft team) to define the place where the add-in controls will be displayed.
EDIT:
There are two places where add-ins may appear in the client interface. This depends on what type of add-in you have created. There are command add-in and contextual add-in. Both of them will appear somewhat in the space of the message view anyway. The following are examples of where they appear withing the interface ...
And for web view ...

I am developing a VSTO application for Outlook client. I am trying have my form open in the part of the Outlook client window which is highlighted in red in the following image:
I think I can't use the form regions because they replace the view for a single item.
So basically what I want to do is opening my custom form (windows or web) in the red area when I click my tool's button on the toolbar.
Any ideas how this can be done?
There are three main ways for displaying your own form there:
You can use the WebViewURL and WebViewOn properties of the Folder class for setting a web view state for the folder. Microsoft Outlook uses the rendering engine of the version Windows Internet Explorer installed on the client computer to display the web page. If Internet Explorer is not installed on the client computer, Outlook will not display the web page.
Create an adjucent Outlook window. See Creating Adjacent Windows In Outlook for more informaiton. Note, you need to have a deep understanding of Windows API to move that way, see SetWindowsHookEx.
Add-in Express provides a layout for the form out of the box. There is no need to invent a wheel in that case.
You will need to get down to the HWND level to insert your UI - see https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/stephen_griffin/2010/06/01/adjacent-windows-in-outlook/ and https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/OlAdjacentWindows/
