Status

The Status popup displays useful information about the state of sets, regions, and graphs. In addition to this, several useful operations are provided to manipulate sets and graphs.

At the bottom of the popup are the controls for displaying what appears in the top portion of the popup. Directly this above is a panel that provides operations on the objects displayed in the scrolled region.

Staring with the bottom panel, from left to right, the selections are:

Close
Close the Status popup.
Update
Freshenup the status display.
Write
Write the contents of the status display to the Results popup, from there, the information provided by Status can be written to disk.
Page+
Page forward through the status display. There is a limit as to how many sets can be displayed in the Status popup at one time. By default, the maximum is 30. When the number of sets is less than 30, this button is not needed, use the scroll bars to view the status of the sets that are not shown in the display.
Page-
Page backward through the status display. There is a limit as to how many sets can be displayed in the Status display region at one time. By default, the maximum is 30. When the number of sets is less than 30, this button is not needed, use the scroll bars to view the status of the sets that are not shown in the display.
Home
Go to the first page of the status display.
End
Go to the last page of the status display.
Display
An option menu used to select the object types to view, sets, graphs, or regions. The operations panel directly above will change as the object type in this item is changed.

Operations in the Status popup are performed by clicking on the operation, then clicking on one or more set numbers shown in the display. There is a status line provided that will give a bit of help on what actions to take to perform a given operation. Generally, the cursor will change to reflect the nature of the operation.

When the selection for Display is Sets, the operations provided are:

Kill
Clicking on Kill activates the pointer such that clicking on a set number shown in the display of the Status popup kills the set. After a set is Kill'ed, the point remains hot, the Kill operation can be performed agin, until the Cancel button is pressed.
Deact
Clicking on Deact followed by clicking on a set number in the scrolled window will deactivate the set (deactivation merely hides the set, the data are not released). The function can be useful when there are lots of sets being drawn, and the interest is in a subset of the sets being display in the drawing area.
React
Clicking on React followed by clicking on a set number in the scrolled window will reactivate the set if it has previously be deactivated.
Copy
Clicking on Copy followed by clicking on a set number in the scrolled window will select the set to copy from. Click again on another set number to perform the copy. One trick that can be performed here is that this operation can be used to copy sets from one graph to another by changing the current graph. The current graph must be changed by either clicking on the graph to receive the focus on the drawing area, or using Graph/Graph operations.
Move
Clicking on Move followed by clicking on a set number in the scrolled window will select the set to move. Click again on another set number to perform the move. One trick that can be performed here is that this operation can be used to move sets from one graph to another by changing the current graph. The current graph must be changed by either clicking on the graph to receive the focus on the drawing area, or using Graph/Graph operations.
Auto
Clicking on Auto followed by clicking on a set number in the scrolled window will select autoscale the graph axes such that the set in its entirety is displayed in the drawing area.
