Data menu

The data menu is a bottom-right display surface for temporary or live application data. It uses the same visual style as the keybinding menu but does not accept keyboard input.

The menu stays hidden while it has no rows and no supported field is focused. It appears when:

  • an operation pushes data into it (for example import progress), or
  • a form field with a specialized type receives focus.

The menu has a title and label/value rows. Application data can be anything, such as:

Import status
Rows read 128
Rows imported 120
Errors 3

When a specialized form field is focused, the menu shows derived facts about the input rather than the raw value:

Field type Facts shown
Date / time / datetime / instant Weekday and day of year (in your timezone for instants)
Phone Country, calling code, and number type
IBAN Country, plus bank and branch identifiers when available
Email Domain
Credit card Card brand
GTIN Format and check digit, plus a corrected value when available

For ordinary fields (text, boolean, int, bigint, money) it shows the field name and type instead.
