2.16 The Status Line

The status line is composed of two areas: on the left a status bar and on the right one or several progress bars.

The status bar is used to display temporary information about GPS operations. Note that most of the information GPS displays can be found in the Messages window.

The progress bars are used to display information about on going operations such as builds, searches, or VCS commands. These tasks operate in the background, and can be paused/resumed via a contextual menu. This contextual menu is available by right-clicking on the progress bars themselves or on the corresponding lines in the Task Manager. See The Task Manager
