Cursor Status Area.

The rightmost area contains three panels of attribute

fields that may show information when you open a file in TargetPro,
depending on the type of navigation data and other attributes that may have
been present in the opened file prior to opening. Within the Cursor Status
Area, information is arranged in three panels:

• Cursor Panel

• Target-Debris Panel (or Target – Not Classified, if your opened file is not

a target or contact type of file)

• Towfish Panel

The fields in these three groups are explained in Table 1.
Status Bar.

When you open a TargetPro file and that file has the active

focus, text identifying key properties of that file (such as file name, number
of pixels in the x and y axes, file size, zoom level, etc.) appear here.
