In the status bar of the graphical editor, the following information is shown:

Cursor

The cursor's form reflects the active command.

Use the keyboard

The cursor can be controlled with the keyboard; the grid is taken into account when doing this. The increment can be set to several levels.

Tooltip

If you move the cursor over an object in the graphical editor (2D or 3D), the object is displayed in a different color. If the cursor hovers above the object, a tooltip displays information on the object. For a component, for instance, the DT and the function definition are displayed.
