Could you simply reset the toolbar selection to whatever it was
before, then display your sheet and then manually set the selection to
the new one if the user agrees?

I could do that, but then the user would see the selected toolbar item change away, then back. Mail's preference doesn't behave that way, so I am presuming there must be some way to intercept the change and stop it, if appropriate. Â Perhaps the way do handle this is to prevent redisplay of the
window... I'll have to explore this...

No need to "prevent" redisplay. Redisplay due to changes usually
happens at the end of the event loop cycle where the changes took
place. If you reset the selection before that happens (e.g. if the
toolbar item's action fires before the redisplay) then the user will
not see the intermediate state.

Works like a charm!
Thanks for the inisght, Michael. _______________________________________________
