click the arrow to display the status bar messages and then click the arrow again to try to close it - this seem to pin it and it will not go away. The only way to close the status bar messages now is to close Lotus Notes down.
This is probably why I’m having this issue…since it’s not supported. But if you have a solution and don’t mind sharing, I would appreciate it. Otherwise, I just won’t click on the arrow again to close the status bar since there are other ways of closing it. Thanks!
