Status line
The status line comes in two flavors: for the main screen and for the notation bar.
main screen
The status line of the main screen shows the following from left to right:
- see the 'hint' text for the 'thing' that the mouse cursor is currently on (e.g. a button on the button bar or a menu -item) In many cases you will immediately see the shortcut associated with that action.
 - an eventual notification from MusiCAD when saving and opening.
 - line number
 - page number
 
notation bar
The status line of the notation bar shows successively:
- the cursor object in musicad notation (pitch, duration, options)
 - bar number
 - count
 - time
 - current bar
 - help information
 - extra information
