 +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.
