Automation Workshop shows an icon in the Windows Notification Area. The icon allows quick access to relevant options such as the Log and Queue Managers, as well as Automation Workshop itself · Getting started
Icon
The icon is animated when a Task is running. When a Task experiences an error, the icon becomes highlighted, thus helping to facilitate error tracking when designing, deploying, or debugging a Task. To configure the icon, use Service options.
Context menu
While a right mouse button click opens a context menu with options to both access Automation Workshop features and configure the icon itself, a left mouse button click just shows the former.
