About the Status bar

The Status bar shows your current program status.

You may find it useful while drawing or simulating the part. The status bar uses a text display for:

• Cursor coordinates during geometry creation
• The name of the object you are snapping to, for example Point 'pt1
• The coordinate plane of the current view (XY, XZ, or YZ)
• Your drawing units (Inch or Millimeter)
• The name of the current layer. Click the name to change to a different layer, or open the Layers dialog.
• The name of the current UCS. Click the name to select a different UCS.
• The name of the current setup. Click the name to select a different setup.
• The name of the current CNC. Click the name to select a different CNC file.
• The name of the current MD file. Click the name to display the Setup - Simulation information dialog.
• The name of the current tool crib. Click the name to select a different tool crib.
• Simulation information (tools, feeds/speeds, elapsed time)

The Status bar is not a toolbar and you cannot dock it. It forms the bottom part of the FeatureCAM window and displays information about the computer, the state of the program, or information about what you are doing.
