Text Info

Pablo, Good to see you again. Will "Text Info" & "Screen Statistics" ever be able to reflect the Correct, current, COLLECTION of an OBJECT. Right now it always reports the last collection selected, which is not necessarily the currently selected OBJECT. It would be better to not report a COLLECTION as selected.

The Collection and Object in Text Info are not related, that’s why they’re separated by a pipe instead of a chevron like breadcrumbs. Objects can be in multiple collections so it’s not possible to show “the collection” an object belongs to. Instead, the active Collection is shown. It’s important to see at all times because that’s where new objects will be added to.

Pablo, Thanks, this has been bugging me for a long time. I'd no idea about the difference between / and |.
