==== Improving Saving Information Icon in the Status Bar ==== Background: Improve the feedback for the user if a document has been saved recently. This feedback will be shown by extending the already available document symbol in the status bar (see [http://paulojose-brainstorm.blogspot.com/2011/03/updating.html here] for the general idea). * Document Symbol "Empty": Show if the document has been newly created, or the content is unchanged in comparison to the saved version. * Document Symbol "Orange Star": Show if the document has been unsaved changes or a document saving process is still running. * Document Symbol "Green Checkmark": Show for 3 seconds after a document saving process has been finished. Then switch to document symbol "Empty" (see above). Skills: intermediate C++, timer-based event handling.
