The actual interval size of the ruler marks depends on the current zoom
percentage. In zoomed-out view, for example at 50%, there's more distance
between ruler marks than when zoomed-in to 150%. To handle work where
you want finer control or smaller snapping increments, click a zoom button to
magnify the page.
By default, the horizontal ruler lies along the top of the WebPlus window and
the vertical ruler along the left edge. The default ruler intersection is the top
left corner of the pasteboard area. The default zero point (marked as 0 on
each ruler) is the top-left corner of the page area.
To define a new zero point:
Click and drag the arrow on the ruler intersection to the new zero point on
the page or pasteboard.
To move the rulers:
With the Shift key down, click and drag the arrow on the ruler
intersection. The zero point remains unchanged.
Double-click on the ruler intersection to make the rulers and zero point
jump to the top left-hand corner of the currently selected object. This
comes in handy for measuring page objects.
To restore the original ruler position and zero point:
Double-click the arrow on the ruler intersection.
To lock the rulers and prevent them from being moved:
Choose T
ools>Options... and select the Rulers page, then check Lock
If the ruler intersection is greyed, the rulers are currently locked.
