Sorry for my delay. I set this aside because I couldn't get it to work, and I vowed to return to it later. Famous last words...
I'm slightly embarrassed to say that I never use the button bar. I've had it completely disabled for 10+ years, since I use only keyboard. I know some will say I'm crazy because buttons are the best part of TC. I was able to turn the bar back on and was able to add a button, but I'm not sure where in the dialog or vertical.bar file this text is supposed to go. Right now it just contains lines like button1=, cmd1=, iconic1=. I'm going through the forums now to try to re-learn the custom button bar mechanics so I can test the button you suggested.
Also, to make matters worse, I have every keystroke remapped as well.
So when I get forum tips that are specific keystrokes, I always need to go unbind these keys to see what they originally did. I'm working on this too. I really should keep a separate portable TC installation without any remaps just for testing stuff like this.
Anyhow, the only part of this I've solved for sure was that my "additional bug" of the source selection disappearing was not really a bug. I had some debug AHK code active that appeared to be writing to a file in the Source directory, and *that* change in the source dir's files is what seemed to be making my source selection disappear. Once I disabled those debug file writes from AHK, the issue went away.
I will continue to work on my study of buttons tonight to see if I can get your button tested. Sorry again for the delay -- and THANK YOU again for all the help!
