Eikon Developer toolbar in Visual Studio doesn't respond to events

While debugging an Open Eikon app, I've noticed that the Eikon Developer toolbar doesn't reset the state of the buttons, if the debugging process is stopped from elsewhere

1. Create an Empty project
2. Set a breakpoint
3. Press "Start Eikon Debugger"
4. When the VS stops at the breakpoint, press Shift-F5 or select "Stop Debugging" either from the "Debug" menu or the command bar
5. Eikon Developer toolbar still shows as if it is attached to the process

    Hi,

    Yes, this is a known limitation of the toolbar. It does not watch for external triggers. For now, we do not plan to fix this behavior.

    The workaround is to "stop debugging" from within the toolbar, even if its already stopped.
