Hello,

Not sure if this is the correct place to submit feature requests for Project Monitor - if not, kindly share the correct place so I can submit there.

I regularly use Project Monitor (TSVN 1.10) to track 20-25 repos, some of which are behind a VPN or which experience occasional downtime. If the server is down while Project Monitor is checking for updates, Project Monitor displays a connection error on each item. Clearly this is the intended behavior.

The problem comes when the connection is re-established. In order for checks/updates to resume on a given repo, the error must be individually cleared. This is time-consuming to do with several repos being monitored, and requires manual intervention.
FYI, the issue also occurs for all projects, if you put your machine to sleep and "boot" it afterwards.


I propose some possible solutions for this use case:

1. Add a "Clear all errors" button.
That already exist. Shift-click the "Mark all as read" button to clear the errors. Obviously that functionality is not too obvious to find. Maybe an alternative like a button on the the project page for projects which have an error (aka: clear error / clear all errors) and/or an entry in the context-menu when right-clicking one of the entries with an error might be worthwhile adding?

2. Add an option to auto-clear the error during the next scheduled update, so the monitoring thread can check for updates if the server is available again.
