Status Bar

The Status bar shows information about the position of the cursor, active element, and calculation status. The type of visible information varies depending on what windows are open and the type of active element. When editing an element, a brief description/prompt/information is displayed.

• To the left, the coordinates of the cursor are shown. When the cursor is in the Horizontal window, the coordinates are East-North. When in the Vertical window, the coordinates are Chainage-Elevation.

• Next symbol is a Lock. The lock is green when there is no element selected for editing. When an element is activated for editing, by clicking on it, the lock changes to red.

• Next to the Lock, to the right, information about current element is displayed - Element number, Element type, Coordinates, Chainage, Length and Radius (Transition are displayed with Start- and End radius). Displayed information about elements in the vertical alignment is Element number, Element type, Chainage for start and finish, and Element length.

• Further to the right, the status of the line calculation is displayed. When the calculation is successful, the text Calc OK is shown in green. When the calculation is not successful, the text Calc Not OK is shown in red. Double-clicking this field opens the result text-file. This is the result from the NADB calculation. For more details, see Line Calculation.

• The right side of the Status bar shows current status for Caps Lock, Num Lock and Scroll Lock.
