Status Indicators

The status indicators tell you at a glance whether a study is still generating and whether you have unsaved work. Look at the two indicators at the right end of the toolbar row: they update by themselves and need no interaction.

Each indicator is a labeled light that is green when its statement is true and red when it is false.

At the right end of the Cygnus toolbar row, the Generator is running indicator is red and the Changes are saved indicator is green.

tip

When Changes are saved is red, save the workspace to keep your work: see Save Workspace. Saving turns the indicator green.

While Generator is running is green, you can't save the workspace, start a new workspace, open another workspace or exit Cygnus. To stop a study that is generating, see Cancel Study Generation.
