Summary
Added a visual status indicator to the menubar icon that changes color when the auto-clicker is active, making it easier for users to see at a glance whether clicking is currently running.
Changes Made
• Enhanced menubar icon feedback: The menubar icon now turns green when the auto-clicker is active and returns to the default appearance when inactive
• Added clickerStatusChanged(notification:) method: Listens for clicker status changes via NotificationCenter
• Added createTintedImage(from:tintColor:) helper method: Creates a colored version of the icon using Core Graphics
• Registered NotificationCenter observer: Listens for .clickerStatusChanged notifications in applicationDidFinishLaunching
Technical Details
• Uses NSImage drawing APIs to create a tinted version of the menubar icon
• Green color (NSColor.systemGreen) applied when auto-clicker is active
• Original template icon restored when auto-clicker is inactive (maintains light/dark mode compatibility)
• All UI updates performed on main thread for thread safety
Visual Changes
Before: Menubar icon remained the same color regardless of auto-clicker status
After:
• 🟢 Green icon = Auto-clicker is active
• ⚫ Default icon = Auto-clicker is inactive
Testing
• [x] Icon changes to green when auto-clicker starts
• [x] Icon returns to default when auto-clicker stops
• [x] Works in both light and dark mode
• [x] No crashes or performance issues
