I am running Node-REd v1 beta.2. I wonder if anyone can do a real quick testing to double check the behavior of the trigger node.
I noticed that the blue square indicator in the trigger node will appear only the very first time the trigger node receives a message (after it is deployed) and afterwards this indicator will no longer show up.
I added a catch node and note that it always captures an `undefined` value from the trigger node.

Can you raise wrinkles with the beta in the announce thread for the beta so we don’t miss anything. There was an issue raised about status so it may or may not be related.

Sure, doing now. Thanks Dave. 😉
