Some of the tutorials on-line have information windows that display what is selected or used at that time:
number of Objects, points, type of objects, etc….
Shift-V (or in the OM Mode menu choose View Settings) gets you the viewport settings – the tab you want is HUD, the stuff you check there shows up in your viewport ‘head’s-up display fashion’
