&xwp;'s status bars operate in three different modes, depending on whether no object, just one object or several objects are currently selected in the folder. For each of these three modes, you may enter any text you like into the respective text field.
Press the "Select class..." button to select the WPS class for which you wish to set status bar information. The codes you then enter into the entry field affect objects of this class only.
If the "Dereference Shadows" setting in this group is enabled, &xwp; will, if a single shadow object is currently selected, not display the information for the shadow object (which is pretty useless), but for the object which the shadow points to instead.
If the "Dereference Shadows" setting in this group is enabled and multiple objects are selected, among which are shadows, &xwp; will use the information of the object which the shadows point to for computing the "selected objects" sizes. Of course, this may give you a size for the selected objects which can be larger than the size of the objects in the folder, since the shadowed objects don't really belong to the folder.
&xwp; uses special codes to display variable Desktop object information.
All codes start with the "$"
character. If &xwp; does not recognize
a certain text you enter here as a status bar code, it will simply be copied into the
status bar display, so you can also add informative text here.
The codes that can be used in the status bar content descriptions depend on the mode that the status bar currently operates in. For detailed descriptions of the various codes, select from the following list:
