If you aren't sure why something is invalid, click on the Checkmark button and an explanatory notice will pop up for a few seconds. Or see [[#Validation]] below. ## Saving the Status Once you have added or edited the desired information, and none of the fields are red, you can click on the Checkmark to save the Status.  ## Validation Red warnings will be shown if any of the following checks are not satisfied: - The two Symbol values must be a single character. - The Name cannot be empty. ## Limitations and Issues - Currently hitting Return to save changes and close the modal only works if you Tab through all the values until the Checkmark button has focus.
