We recently had an object for which we wanted to put a blink on to make sure our employees fill it in if it is blank. As a result I added a simple timer object and at about 500 MS setting it will check the background of the object, if it is grey it turns it to red and vice versa. This gives an easy blinking effect. The only problem is when the user is performing other functions in the meantime, the cursor in whatever object it is in, disappears from the screen's view, but if you move the mouse around it shows up, but only of course until the next interval with the timer object. Is there any way to keep the blinker on the timer and not have the cursor disappear from their screens as it references the timer object in between data input on another object?
