If the root has no accidental, the button has no effect. Hint: if you don't use the low E-string in your chord shape, you can enter different bass notes in the analyzer and listen to the results (unfortunately the audio function is still limited for some mobile devices). If the bass tone is the same as the lowest tone of the chord shape and the chord symbol seems too complex or doesn't make sense theoretically, you may consider to choose the easiest possible interpretation as slash chord. But you should ask yourself what tone a bass player would play to it (even when there is no bass player playing along).

In most cases it's simply the shortest chord symbol, which is also the easiest one to read.

*) If you prefer to write the full length chord symbol in front of the slash on your lead sheet, feel free to do so. Example: C maj7(9)/ D has the 9th in the bass and therefore can be written as C maj7/ D. In return the interval it represents will not show up in the chord symbol anymore*. If you choose to interpret a chord as a slash chord, the lowest note is added to the chord symbol after a slash. The corresponding chord symbol shows up above the fretboard and the spots of the chord shape will display the according notes or intervals. With the button inversions and slash chords you can navigate through the list of the different chord interpretations.
