Hide or close the script pane when users initiate a script from a button
Twelve months on this still looks to be an issue, at least with locally-installed Excel. Haven't tried with the online version as yet. Would be really handy to get this resolved from a cosmetics/usability perspective. Other than that, have been able to achieve everything I've needed to with scripts so far.

- Yes me too, I can't use these scripts to give to a user with this intrusive break to his workflow every time he runs the single line script. Nothing at all would be a suitable option, we can see instantly if the script (Refresh All) has worked or not we do not need or want any of the debug or sript status information. Please just give us an "off" button?
Many thanks
Anthony Hi - I'm sure the notification is less intrusive than before, but it's still there in bright yellow awaiting someone to tell it to go away. It would be great if either...
a) it was as the previous user suggested and the status simply showed in the very bottom bar where averages, sums, etc show when you select cells or...
b) it automatically disappeared a very short time after successful completion or...
c) you had a preference option to not show it at all
The biggest issue is that if you want your screen clean, you have to actively dismiss the notification.
Thanks!
- I haven't used scripts until now. The Script Run Status has immediately struck me as an issue for developing an excel based user tool. There needs to be an option to prevent this window from opening up! I'm using a script to move to a different sheet and hide the previous one (like a hyperlink but added functionality. But the Script Run Status panel opening ruins the effect.
