Are you frustrated at having the status bar resetting and loosing the results of your measurement commands?
By default MicroStation/J resets the status bar as soon as you move your mouse into the status bar area.
A new variable in MicroStation/J 7.1 MS_AUTORESTORESTATUSBAR allows you to control this.
A value of 1 causes MicroStation to restore the Status Bar to its default display mode as soon as your mouse enters into the status bar area.
Setting this variable to "0" will allow MicroStation to work the way it used to in earlier versions, requiring a mouse click to restore the Status Bar default display.
MicroStation uses the Status Bar to display information such as the results of the measure command.
