Dropdown UI says 'Enabled' when disabled #49

(This may well have just been me having an incredibly slow moment but I thought I'd submit the issue to at least bring up the conversation)

I had an issue last week where SensibleSideButtons wasn't working. I kept checking the UI and was convinced it was enabled because it said 'Enabled' at the top of the dropdown. It looked like this:

It took me longer than I'd like to admit to work out that the absence of a tick/check next to 'Enabled' meant it was disabled. I thought it was just a status notice rather than a clickable enable/disable button. I think the separator between the Enable button and the other two check-able buttons possibly added to the confusion somewhat. I probably would never have worked it out if 'Trigger on mouse down' hadn't been ticked.

Anyway, as I said this was probably just me being dumb, but there's possibly some opportunities to make the UI a bit clearer. (Works perfectly after I enabled it, btw, thanks for building this!)

+1 this. I thought the same and was about to remove the app.

Seems like a simple UX improvement.

Sometimes the programm stops working. "Enabled" is then without the checkmark. Clicking it once doesn't enable. The second click will then enable.
