-The is a placeholder ​for info about the Keyboard Maestro Status Menu.+===== Keyboard Maestro Status Menu ===== 
 +This is the menu you see when you click on the Keyboard Maestro icon in the Menu Bar. There is also an Action for it, called [[action:​Show Status Menu|Show Status Menu]]. 
 + 
 +### Here is an example Status Menu 
 +It will show macros for which you have added the [[trigger:​Status_Menu|Status Menu Trigger]] as one of the things that will trigger the execution of the macro. 
 + 
 +The Status Menu shows only macros that are active and have the Status Menu trigger. ​The word "​active" ​is Keyboard Maestro terminology ​for macros or groups that are both enabled and active in the current context, so it should be preferred to "​allowed"​. ​ At the same time it should be made clear that the macros in the Status menu are not "​active"​ in the same sense that applications are active. ​ In other words, these macros are not running, but are available to run in the current context when any one of the macro'​s triggers is engaged, or by clicking on the macro in the Status menu.

 +The Paste menu includes the 30 most recent text entries on the clipboard. ​ Hold the Shift key down to paste as plain text, and the Option key down to just set the clipboard without pasting.
