    Hi Jeff, 

    you can do this with an "init" Method in your CUI element. It´s possible to disable a CUI button according to specific properties. I don´t have a sample at hand, but take a look on some of the existing CUI elements that do something similar. Maybe the Promote/Mass Promote elements.

    Edit: I never used the "classifications" so I am not sure if this would be the better variant. But I remember I disable one button according to the "state" property, which is somekind of similar

    Thanks Angela.  I've found the Init method for the button and just need to decipher how it's interpreting whether to show it or not.  The logic in the method doesn't refer to any properties that I can see, it's all variables in the method.  But regardless, this is a good starting point, thanks.
