Customize SSMS Status Bar Color By Database Environment
Customize SSMS status bar color by database to avoid accidental mistakes between DEV, UAT, PROD & more, improving workflow efficiency with visual differentiation.
In SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), you can customize the color of the status bar when connecting to a specific database. This feature is particularly helpful for distinguishing between different environments like DEV, UAT, PROD, etc. By visually differentiating these environments, it reduces the likelihood of performing actions in the wrong environment, helping prevent accidental mistakes. This simple customization can add an extra layer of caution and improve workflow efficiency.
