When testing out, I'd like to be able to clear all the debug nodes statuses easily (just in this tab)

What the easiest/simplest way of doing this?

I was after someway of doing it without having to do it that way

I do have my own status node that displays the payload for a few secs and then just shows the last time a message passed thru

Bu I was wanting to publish a series of images of my flow to show the sequence, when I realised I didn't know how to easily clear a debug status

I may have a simple way that's not too bad for my scenario of just 3 debug nodes

It's to click on the button twice and then click deploy (which clears the status)

I would be nice to have on the right-click menu but even if it was there we might still have to click on deploy????
