AutoKey Icon Error Status #33

Closed josephj11 closed 7 years ago

When a macro error occurs, AutoKey changes the panel icon to flashing red. There doesn't appear to be a way to reset this other than by quitting AutoKey and restarting it.

One possible solution would be to "manually" reset it when the user accesses Tools->View Script Error.

Another possibility would be that something already clears the error and its text - possibly the next macro/phrase which completes successfully. This should also reset the panel icon. This will also take the burden off the user who will then only have to view the script error when that would aid in the debugging process.

Another suggestion (from ineuw01) would be to add a Clear Error option to the panel icon context menu.
