Retrieve input from the status bar

Hello,
Anyone knows how to retrieve a value from the status bar, on the bottom right, to a ruby script?
Thanks!

Yes, you have to implement the method "onUserText" on your tool:

ex:

# This is called when the user types a value into the VCB
def onUserText(text, view)
    # The user may type in something that we can't parse as a length
    # so we set up some exception handling to trap that
    begin
        value = text.to_l # convert the value to a length
    rescue
        # Error parsing the text
        UI.beep
        value = nil
        Sketchup;;set_status_text "", SB_VCB_VALUE
    end
    ....
end

Thanks A lot.
