[resolved] Why Caution in the Notification Bar when Auto-Updating? (6.3.0.0015)

Are there plans to change this? How about an animated download icon, followed by a nice little indexing icon? Please. The cautions are already present in the search panel, library--where they should be. The caution icon doesn't make me feel like everything is progressing normally. I'm used to it meaning a sync error or that something might not be quite right.

Good idea (the once scary sync error notification is now almost invisible)

I thought the same thing. It makes it look like there's a problem.

What makes it even more confusing is that if you click the Caution Icon it still says, “Resources need to be installed. Please click to restart.” Of course the restart is not necessary and in fact, if you click the link nothing happens. The development team can save Customer Support lots of headaches by updating both the icon and the message.

The restart link not working and the restart message that doesn't go away are both known issues listed in the release notes.

Thanks for posting. We're taking another look at this icon.

The icon has been changed in 6.3 RC2.
