Simulating button press (i.e, for return)

Title: Simulating button press (i.e, for return)
Hi everyone,

Had some legacy code that simulated a button press when the user typed return in a text field.  Wanted to make sure the button was highligted long enough to be seen (the window doesn't go away).  But it seems that HiliteControl() has become so deprecated as to no longer function on Snow Leopard:

        ::HiliteControl(cntl_ref(), kCtInButton);

        unsigned long  finalTicks;
    
        Delay(6, &finalTicks);

        ::HiliteControl(cntl_ref(), kCtActive);

Now obviously this isn't a good way to do this anymore.  But I have a Push Button control in a non-compositing window, so my attempts to do it using one of the HIView API yielded an error.

Any suggestions?

Stephen
