how can I have a drawing tool selected? Ctrl+click show a “Lock” label but after I have used the tool eg. drawing a straight line with the Line tool it isn’t selected any longer but the Selection tool is.
Hold control when selecting it, it will have a blue selection rather
than a gray one.

If you select the “Lock” item in the tool’s contextual menu or hold down the command key when you select the tool it will be locked and stay selected until you select another tool.
The contextual menu is a popup menu that appears in the context where you right-click (or hold down the command key and click) the mouse button. If you right-click most tool icons in the palette you’ll get a contextual menu with a “Lock” item.
