Settings and alerts

Whatever needs your attention gathers on the “Alerts” page in the sidebar; the number beside “Alerts” counts the amber and red items.

The Alerts page

The page lists only what needs your attention (amber and red), one matter per row: a light, the item and where it stands. Click a row to go where it is dealt with; the “Pending” and “Queue backlog” rows carry “Put all on chain” at their right. When nothing needs dealing with, the page says “Nothing needs your attention”.

Where your whole-machine backup stands shows at “Last backup” in Settings › Local data; see Whole-machine backup.

When something important comes up, the window alerts you once (on a Mac the Dock icon bounces) with a toast starting “Alert:”. Each matter alerts once.

Syncing

The status line at the bottom of the sidebar shows “Last synced HH:MM” and the like. Click the sync icon at its right end and the app reads the chain in the background: it checks the balance, compares your ledger with the chain and re-verifies the grants you hold. It also runs on its own from time to time; set how often in Settings › Notifications.

Settings

“Setup check” under About has a row per item: done items are ticked, and an open item carries a key at its right to finish it, such as “Export backup” or “Edit nodes”.

Buttons

Blue key

The main action on this screen.

Solid red key

Writes to your ledger or sends to the chain the moment you press it; it appears on the card that writes alone.

Red delete key

The last step of deleting an identity or a record, and the second confirmation when removing a local copy or a read-only network.

Other keys

Other actions, or opening the confirmation card or the next step. Writing to the ledger or the chain happens with the solid red key on a card.
