StatusBars
How to populate statusbars
- On the statusbar you will see a coloured block to the far left. If you right-click it
you get a menu with 4 options, click edit. You can also simply click the block, but that would be too
simple.
- Now the block should have turned into a gear, one of the elements on the statusbar has a flashing black
border and coloured box with a name above it. The colour and name indicates which statusbar this element
will be visible in.
- With your mouse pointer on the gear scroll up or down. The colour and name
of the box changes. If you don't have a scroll wheel you can right click the gear and click
next/previous to select the statusbar.
- When you have decided on a statusbar click the gear. The next
element is selected.
- Repeate steps 3 and 4 for all the elements. The statusbar is out of edit mode when the block is a clear colour.
