VS2005 IDE Status bar questionThis might be common knowledge... but, what does this animated icon in the
VS2005 IDE mean? (http://www.cflashsoft.com/temp/vs05sb.JPG) it's a VS icon... animated... slowly blowing up). I've personally never noticed it until tonight. What does it mean (there's no tooltip!.... bad UI design guys!)? Dear CMM,
I don't have such Icon in my VS2005, What edition are you using? -- Show quoteHide quoteRegards Ken Lin, Kam Hung Founder and VP of Hong Kong .NET User Group(http://HKNetUG.com) MCP, MCP+I, MCDST, MCSA, MCSE(NT4 & win2k), MCSE+I, MCDBA(SQL7 & SQL2K), MCSD(VB6 & .NET), MCAD(.NET) Microsoft Community Star(Hong Kong & Taiwan) Microsoft Most Valuable Professional(.NET since 2003) MCT2004 & 2005 "CMM" <cmm@nospam.com> wrote in message news:OhLjL3eXGHA.3760@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > This might be common knowledge... but, what does this animated icon in the > VS2005 IDE mean?

It is possible that I saw it as well, to get more information, is it somewhere at the right bottom and is it with an aspnet page. I thought that I had seen it when there was something loaded from IIS?

statusbar. No code windows or anything were open and nothing was going on. The app was not in debug mode or anything. Nothing seemed wrong and the project compiled and worked just fine. CPU usage was nominal..... I'm just curious as to what it meant. :-) P.S. I have the same project open right now and there is no animated icon.

I'm not stupid. With no windows open, the icon flushed all the way to the right. And, continued to animate.

But, it's still a curiosity. I can't see what an exploding Visual Studio icon could possibly mean. If this helps... my web project was running off a true local IIS directory (i.e. not a filesystem project that starts up the "temporary" VS2005 web server thingy). *Sometimes* after a fresh reboot, VS crashes when first starting up.... I think it's because it gets tired waiting for IIS to start. I think it may have crashed shortly before seeing this icon... but I just restarted the IDE.... and everything worked perfectly. Try posting in the VS general ng perhaps someone there might be able to
explain.
