Whenever you select an object, the Property inspector identifies the selection. The upper left
area of the Property inspector contains the following information about the selection:

The name appears in the title bar of the document whenever you select this item. For
slices and buttons, the name is the filename when exported.

If the status bar is turned on (Windows only), selected objects are also identified in the
status bar at the bottom of the document window.
The Property inspector also displays information and settings for the object type selected. For

such as stroke width and color.
