Status Bar information on Straight Lines

Corel X3   Corel Draw
When I draw a straight line, a line of text appears on the Status Bar (I think that's what it's called) showing me the DX: and DY: points and the Distance: but with ... after it indicating there is more information. I know that one of the bits of information I can't see is the angle of the line.                                                                    How do I extend this information line so it shows me the extra info?   (I'm particularly interested in the line angle)       and    How do I get this information line to stay on screen after I've clicked the End Point for the line? (Currently it reverts to 'curve on layer 1') as soon as I click the end point of the line)
Thanks
Chris

  • On my X3, I do see the information that you are talking about in the Status Bar:

    I don't know if any of the settings for the Status Bar can be the reason for what you are seeing.

    If you need to have the information remain visible, then you might do better to use the angular dimension tool.
