What is the star for that appears next to a v5 Flowcode component/icon when it is first placed or copied? Is it a warning that it has not been edited to complete all the details? Also I think there may be more than one colour of star. Significance?
I expect is says somewhere in the help files but I could not immediately locate it.

Re: The star
Hi echase,
I believe the star is to indicate new or changed component, which also places a star on the end of file name (top left had side).
So it’s just a warning to allow checking and saving changes.
If you have a star on the end of file name, just look for the component with the star and check changes are ok.

Re: The star
Hi. Martin is right. It was mentioned that it was difficult to keep track of which icons have been edited between saves in large flowcharts. The star indicates which icons have been edited but not saved.
