[TxMt] tm_dialog quandry (returning array selections)

[Brett Terpstra]

It should be noted (for those of us who are a little slower) that you  
have to remove the performButtonClick connection for the  
returnArgument to work.

Is there any reason that the returnArgument would cause TM to hang  
until the mouse moves?  I thought it was hanging for 2-3 minutes at a  
time and then finally made the connection that it was responding as  
soon as I moved the mouse.  The response is very quick if I keep the  
mouse in motion, otherwise I just get a beach ball after the dialog  
completes.

Thanks,
Brett
