Here's what I want to do: have an LED (actually a pictctrl, or some other form of custom image) that can show 2 states, like on and off, but that does not blink or change in any when if the user happens to click on it.

SOrry if this is easy, but I can't find it!

You could cover it with a transparent button (make sure it's in front of the LED or pictctrl and has "highlight when clicked" turned off) that does nothing?

YES! I had tried that but I didn't realize that my ubutton was behind my pictctrl. Moving it to the front works, it happily eats the mouse clicks.
