Yep. If I start a console from a geany session, that 'process busy' indicator will show up - somewhere. I open at least three sessions anytime I work. Any one of them may have that indicator, and consequently, the build menu greyed out. When I close the console, it clears.
A typical project session will have files sourced from as many as four different directories. That means, I might want to open 4 consoles, though usually it is just 2. For most sessions, I automatically open 2 consoles. Since this can lock one geany build menu in some **other** geany session on a different desktop, I would have to close all the consoles to find the offender. That could be ten consoles to drop before I find which is the problem. This was not a problem in the past. I never saw that indicator in the past. Now - this is a deal breaker. Can that process busy indicator be supressed?
