yes, discoverability was also something i was thinking about and... iirc inkscape showed the way here... gimp has a slightly cleverer implementation... go and try it out! i'm not 100% sure that the status bar is the right place for it... but it's not such a bad place either. personally, i'm dreaming of a dockable feedback/hints palette... ciao a.l.e
