About application status

You can view the status of the application as follows:

Status Bar— Indicates whether the application is ready or not, the user account currently logged on, and license information.
Status Indicator — Displays an alert when a problem occurs that requires your attention.
Status message box — Allows you to view the status of the application, its components, workspace layout, and any services associated with the application. To open the Status message box double-click the Status indicator or click Help | Status.

The Status message box gives more detailed information than the Status Bar or Status Indicator. You can quickly evaluate the system status information by scanning the display icons:

Information: Indicates an information message.
Warning: Indicates a warning message.
Error: Indicates an error message.

By default, the Scroll Automatically box is checked.
