5. Status Window & Bar

5a. Status Window

Appears at the bottom of the view screens. Shows what functions the Left, Middle, and Right Mouse buttons are currently assigned to do. When manipulating the camera or points, these values are replaced by the changing numerical values of the action currently being performed (Example: exact position values in X, Y, and Z for a point will be updated as it is translated).

5b. Status Bar

Appears below the Status Window and shows in the bottom right whether or not CAPS, SCRL, or NUM lock are on. The bottom Left corner displays what a tool does when you place the cursor over it (unless the tool is the currently selected tool). Otherwise, the bottom left reads "ready".

6. Menu Windows

6a. Menu Window(Left)

The first 7 buttons are exactly the same as those in the menu. The next 4 set the functions of the Left, Middle, Right, and Left+Right mouse buttons according to patch and camera manipulation tools. The patch functions not assignable to the Left button are executed by the "Patch" button below, and the bottom "Render" button chooses which renderer will be used.

6b. Menu Window(Right)
