Hi Richard-

No answers, just a datapoint... I looked at a couple of my apps (which have 
never had the blinking issue, to my eye): one did the toolbar assignment in the 
window controller's awakeFromNib, the other did it in windowDidLoad.

Not knowing the mechanics of how your window gets on the screen: are you 
getting everything toolbar related hooked up before issuing a showWindow 
message?  Is the window in a nib and set to appear at launch?  Perhaps there is 
some way you can make sure the toolbar config is happening before the window 
gets onscreen.

Just guesses - sorry I couldn't be of more help!

John
