The general appearance of status bars is determined by the first "Status bars" page in the in the "Workplace Shell" object. You may switch between four different status bar styles. Just try out which one you like best; if you change settings there, all currently visible status bars on your system will be immediately updated.

You may also drop fonts and colors from the respective palettes in the &os2; System Setup folder. If you drop a font or a color on a status bar, all currently visible status bars on your system will be updated. The font and color settings will be saved.

As usual, when dropping colors, holding down the "Ctrl" key will change the foreground (text) color; otherwise the background color will be changed.

There are two handy mouse features with folder status bars:

  1. If you double-click on a status bar, the folder's settings notebook will be opened. (New with V0.84.)

  2. If you click on a status bar with mouse button 2, the folder's context menu will be opened.
