Toolbars: Status Bar

The status bar contains a number of important pieces of information. Each bit of information has it's own little area on the bar. The areas are as follows:

• selection information - The first bit of information on the status bar is about what is currently selected. If you've got a non-entity brush selected, you will see something like "solid with 6 faces". If you've got an entity selected, you will see something like "func_breakable" or "name1 - func_breakable". (The second example "name1 - func_breakable" - will be shown if you've selected an entity that has a name).

• coordinates - Follow the selection information, you'll see something like "@32, 144". These are the coordinates of the mouse cursor in whichever 2D view it's currently in.
  
• selection size information - When you select a brush or entity, it's size will be listed here. You'll see the width, length, and height values listed as something like "32w 128l 64h".
  
• zoom size - If a 2D view is currently in focus, it's zoom value will be shown next.
  
• grid information - The last box displays something like "Snap: On Grid: 16". This means that Snap To Grid is enabled (Shift+W to toggle it) and the current grid is in 16 unit increments (Use [ and ] to decrease and increase the size).
