So I'm an absolute beginner to Blender, so I'm going to follow some tutorials to help me get in the jist of making objects with it. The controls and features are obviously a bit alien to me.

Anyway, first one I try is this screwdriver using this video...

At 1.19 he mentions a curve displays panel, however, I cannot find that panel anywhere. Even with the curve selected under edit mode. Anyone know where to find it? I see Curve Tools at the left side with nothing relevant to what he's saying, and I can't find anything like it on the right.

(I'm not sure if this is the correct place to ask this, so correct me if I should have posted it elsewhere, but any help would be appreciated)/

Hit the N key, another panel will pop up on the right of the screen. Then, with the curve selected, TAB into edit mode and look to the new panel and you should find what you're looking for.
