Description David Simonek 2004-10-13 16:28:08 UTC 
Editor status line should be moved and merged with
global status line.

Pending:
- how to get informations from editor module to
show them in main status line
- SDI problems: status line in main window doesn't
make much sense, especially when part of status
line will be editor's related.
- multi-monitor problems: when having multiple
separated editor areas, how should status line behave?
Comment 1 David Simonek 2005-05-09 12:32:49 UTC 
Valid, but postponed.
Comment 2 Milos Kleint 2005-05-10 08:29:38 UTC 
there's api for placing custom items into statusl line
org.openide.awt.StatusLineElementProvider
Comment 3 Ondrej Langr 2008-10-27 16:16:15 UTC 
Still valid, but has been filed as #123344 together with link to UI specification and more detailed explanation. I'm
closing this task to clean up.
