Add statusbar for immediate textual feedback on what happens #9

Open chuck-sys opened 4 years ago

chuck-sys commented 4 years ago

As the project goes on, I find the need to put some textual feedback in the project, just so the user isn't too confused when things happen, especially when some of the things that happen are offscreen. For example, with the addition of the select feature, it is more likely than ever for someone to delete a node offscreen. Therefore, we would like a count to be displayed on the number of nodes selected (and therefore deleted).

Maybe the bottom-right corner would work.

Status bar added. Linked to templating. Implemented in 7cb35b52c07157bba6919d9d1346a740db7ab8e1. Needs to be fleshed out a little more.

Probably can be used in place of the dialog box tutorial system so as not to inconvenience the user too much.
