I would like to be able to allow or prevent the highlighting of a
push button when it is selected (or, more accurately, armed); depending
on the status of an application-defined callback.

With a XmPushButton widget I can set XmNfillOnArm to be True or False.
If it is False then when the button is armed it is filled with the
XmNarmColour. If I add a callback, XmNarmCallback, and set XmNfillOnArm
to False within this callback then when the button is armed it flashes
as it becomes highlighted and then unhighlighted.

Is there any way to prevent this flashing or am I approaching this
problem from the wrong angle?

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance,

Stuart.
