Why does the Office Button blink?

The Office Button Office button image should only blink when you have not clicked the button to view the commands. The blinking is a "look at me/click here" feature, because many people think that the button looks like a decorative logo, rather than a button to click to see commands. If you click the Office Button Office button image one time, it should stop blinking.

At this time, there is no way to turn off the blinking.
