Trying to figure out how to stop a button blinking, having applied the sforce.console.blinkCustomConsoleComponentButtonText method to it.

Any suggestions ? I have tried applying a zero second blink interval which errors out - requires something greater than zero. Nothing in the docs that stood out to me.

Any assistance most appreciated.

Regards CH

There's another (although undocumented) solution to this: sforce.console.removeBlinkCustomConsoleComponentButtonText() (no arguments required)

This actually disables the blinking of the button text (whereas using blinkCustomConsoleComponentButtonText with the same text as the original button, still causes the button element to change periodically - just with the same caption over and over).

We can stop blinking if we give same text as the button text in alternate text parameter in blinkCustomConsoleComponentButtonText method

eg: Suppose if the Button text is 'Contact Alerts'. if we call sforce.console.blinkCustomConsoleComponentButtonText('HI', 10, callbackfunction).

It will start blinking.

Now if we give same aternate text as button text like sforce.console.blinkCustomConsoleComponentButtonText('Contact Alerts', 10, callbackfunction).

It will stop blinking.

Thanks
