I am trying to do the following... Say I have several buttons with dimmed out icons. I would like them to be replaced by normal undimmed icons whenever the user has selected some text. My idea of making this work was... I have a card idle handler that checks to see if the user has selected some text. If so the handler sets the button's icon to the undimmed icon, and if no text is selected, it sets the button's icon to the dimmed icon. The problem is that setting a button's icon makes the selection disappear. Questions: Is there a way of setting a button's icon without making the selection disappear? Is there a better way to have dimmed out and non-dimmed buttons than having two icons for the button? Thanks in advance for any help...
