The Status Bar, located at the bottom edge of the program window, shows a variety of useful information. If you are looking at one of the four maps, the Status Bar will be divided into two. The left half will show the current position of your cursor. The information is in 7 parts, as follows: (Left-Right)
Latitude of the cursor, in degrees, tenths, and hundredths of a degree. Values south of the Equator are shown as negative numbers.
Longitude of the cursor, in degrees,tenths, and hundredths of a degree. Values west of the Greenwich Prime Meridian are shown as negative numbers.
The distance from your registered position to the current cursor position in Statute Miles and Kilometers.
The short-path Great-Circle bearing from your registered position to the current cursor position, allowing you to know which direction to point your antennas.
The long-path Great-Circle bearing from your registered position to the current cursor position, for those who wish to try long-path communication.
Grid Locator of the cursor, with six-character precision on the Overlay and Online maps, and four-character precision on the World and Great Circle maps.
The right-half of the Status Bar if you are looking at a map, or the full Status Bar if you are not, shows a variety of message about the program operation, and the current status of each tab-page.
