UI Status Bar
The Status Bar displays real-time information about the current workspace, the active image, and file selection state.
It provides continuous feedback during navigation, inspection, and modification without interrupting workflow. The status bar is informational only and does not contain interactive controls.
The status bar is designed to answer questions such as:
- What is the current state of the active image?
- Are there unsaved changes?
- How many images or files am I working with?
- What file location am I currently inspecting?
Displayed values update automatically as the workspace state changes.
