Info Box

The Info Box is a condensed collection of input and parameter controls for the currently active tool (default Settings) or selected element (Selected/Editable Settings).

Unlike Element Settings, the Info Box stays on screen while you work.

If several elements are selected, the Info Box displays the controls for the last selected element.

Selected/Editable: The current Info Box gives you feedback on the number of Selected Elements, as well as how many of those are Editable. Changes made to Info Box settings will affect the Editable elements. (An element might not be Editable if it is on a locked layer.)
