[[Image(statusbar.png,80%,link=)]]

The status bar displays the following information:
||= Box =||= Displays =||= Action / Menus =||
||  [[JOSMImage(statusline/lat)]]  || The geographic latitude of the mousepointer || A left click opens the [wikitr:/Help/Action/JumpToPosition Jump to Position Dialog]. With a right click you can change the coordinates format (`Decimal Degrees`, `deg° min' sec"`, `deg° min'` ''(Nautical)'', ''Projected Coordinates''). ||
||  [[JOSMImage(statusline/lon)]]  || The geographic longitude of the mousepointer || Same as above. ||
||  [[JOSMImage(statusline/heading)]]  || The (compass) heading of the line segment being drawn. || ||
||  [[JOSMImage(statusline/angle)]]  || The angle between the previous and the current way segment. Green background color if [wikitr:/Help/Action/Draw#Anglesnapping Angle Snapping] is active. || A right click opens the angle snapping settings menu, see [#anglemenu below]. ||
||  [[JOSMImage(statusline/dist)]]  || In edit mode: the length of new way segment being drawn; in select mode: the length of selected way(s) or the distance of two selected nodes || A left click changes the system of measurement (''Metric'' → ''Chinese'' → ''Imperial'' → ''Nautical Mile''). With a right click you can directly choose one measurement system. ||
||  [[JOSMImage(statusline/name)]]  || The name, number of nodes and ID of the object at the mouse pointer. || ||
||||
||  ''text''  || Some helpful information about the current [wikitr:/Help/EditToolbar working mode] || With a right click you can copy the shown help text. ||

Additional, except "''text''", the context menu always includes a check box to choose if the statusbar gets hidden when hiding the dialogs panel with `Tab`, 

=== Angle snapping settings menu ===#anglemenu
Available via right click menu at [[JOSMImage(statusline/angle)]] "angle" when [[JOSMImage(mapmode/node/autonode)]] [wikitr:/Help/Action/Draw Draw mode] is enabled:

=== Advanced Preferences ===#AdvancedPreferences
With the following keys in the [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/Advanced Advanced Preferences] you can adjust the numbers in the statusbar:
* `latlon.dms.decimal-format`: adjusts the number of decimal places of the coordinates in deg° min' sec" format
* `latlon.dm.decimal-format`: adjusts the number of decimal places of coordinates in deg° min' (Nautical) format
* `statusbar.decimal-format`: adjusts the number of decimal places of heading, angle and distance/length
* `statusbar.distance-threshold`: determines when to display `--` instead of the distance
After changing such a key you need to restart JOSM.
