# Visual Indicator Styles for VibeTunnel Menu Bar

## Current Implementation

The menu bar now shows session status using visual indicators instead of cryptic numbers. Here are the available styles:

### 1. **Dots Style** (Default)
```
No sessions:     [empty]
Only idle:       3
Only active:     ●●●
Mixed (2/5):     ●● 5
Many active:     ●●●+ 8
```
- Filled dots (●) represent active sessions
- Shows up to 3 dots, then adds "+"
- Total count shown only when idle sessions exist

### 2. **Bars Style**
```
No sessions:     [empty]
Only idle:       ▫︎▫︎▫︎
Only active:     ▪︎▪︎▪︎
Mixed (2/5):     ▪︎▪︎▫︎▫︎▫︎
Many (3/7):      ▪︎▪︎▪︎▫︎▫︎+
```
- Filled squares (▪︎) for active sessions
- Empty squares (▫︎) for idle sessions
- Shows up to 5 bars total

### 3. **Compact Style**
```
No sessions:     [empty]
Only idle:       ◯3
Only active:     ◆2
Mixed (2/5):     2◆5
```
- Diamond (◆) as separator/indicator
- Most space-efficient option

### 4. **Minimalist Style**
```
No sessions:     [empty]
Only idle:       3
Only active:     ●2
Mixed (2/5):     2|5
```
- Simple vertical bar separator
- Dot prefix for active-only

### 5. **Meter Style**
```
No sessions:     [empty]
Only idle:       [□□□□□]
Only active:     [■■■■■]
Mixed (2/5):     [■■□□□]
Mixed (1/3):     [■■□□□]
```
- Progress bar visualization
- Shows active/total ratio

## Changing Styles

To change the indicator style, modify line 144 in `StatusBarController.swift`:

```swift
let indicatorStyle: IndicatorStyle = .dots  // Change to .bars, .compact, etc.
```

## Button Highlighting

The menu bar button now properly highlights when the dropdown is open, providing clear visual feedback that the menu is active.
