Display customizable help or status text in the status line

In the right side of the status line there is a small area where you set custom texts independently of the help text (which is shown to the left).

Here is a small job demonstrating this:

static void setStatusLineText(Args _args)
{
    ;

    xUserInfo::statusLine_CustomText(true); // Force the text to be shown
    infolog.writeCustomStatlineItem("AX Rules");
}


If you don’t force the text to be shown, it will only appear if the user setting “Show customizable Help text field” option is checked on the “Status bar” tab page of the user options form.
