Status BarPhase MOSAIC

The status bar is displayed at the bottom of the Phase MOSAIC window. To display or hide the status bar, use the View | Status Bar menu command.

Command Status Area


The left area of the status bar describes actions of menu items as you use the arrow keys to navigate through menus. This area similarly shows messages that describe the actions of toolbar buttons as you press them, before releasing them. If after viewing the description of the toolbar button command you wish not to execute the command, then release the mouse button while the pointer is off the toolbar button. Status messages from interactive plot cursors are also shown in the left area of the status bar.

Currently executing commands will display status messages in the left area of the status bar and include a progress indicator during lengthy operations. Execution can be aborted by using the cancel button next to the progress indicator.
