The status bar is displayed at the bottom of the <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Mapper</strong> window. To display or hide the status bar, use<br />

The left area of the status bar describes actions of menu items and toolbar icons. The left area of the status bar<br />

will also show color or elevation of the current pixel if it's over a raster image, or the description of the closest<br />

vector overlay component. If the nearest line feature to the cursor contains recognized addressing information,<br />

The right areas of the status bar indicate the current view scale and the current mouse position in both the<br />

global ground reference system and in the Position Display Format currently selected from the Configuration<br />

dialog.<br />
