WSTATUSLN Command: Windows

Required Arguments

no arguments

toggles the status bar on and off. The first argument is optional, but if you specify it, you must include it before the second group of options:

ON

displays the status bar in its most recent active state. If the status bar includes a message area, the message lines in the SAS application windows are disabled. ON is the default setting.

OFF

turns off the status bar. This action enables the message lines in the SAS application windows. The second group of arguments is also optional. Note that specifying these options without specifying the ON option first does not automatically turn the status bar on if it is currently off.

ALL

includes both the message area and the current folder areas on the status bar. If you do not specify the MSG and CDIR options with percentage values, the status bar proportions revert to the most recent settings. ALL is the default setting.

MSG<=percent-msg>

includes the message area as part of the status bar. If you specify this option without the CDIR option, the message area occupies the entire status bar. If you specify a percentage with this option and with the CDIR option, the message area occupies the proportion of the line that you specify.

CDIR<=percent-cdir>

includes the current folder as part of the status bar. If you specify this option without the MSG option, the current folder area occupies the entire status bar. If you specify a percentage with this option and with the MSG option, the current folder area occupies the proportion of the line that you specify.

CURPOS

includes the Enhanced Editor cursor position (line and column) in the status bar when the Enhanced Editor is the active window.
