Adjusting rulers
Developing Sites and Pages 53
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 topleft
corner of the pasteboard area. The default zero point is the top-left corner of
the page area, but this can be changed.
To define a new zero point:
• Drag the tab marker on the ruler intersection to the new zero point on
the page or pasteboard. (Be sure to drag only the triangular marker!)
To move the rulers:
• With the Shift key down, drag the tab marker on the ruler intersection.
Both horizontal and vertical rulers become free-floating and can then
be positioned at an area on the page. 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 page or, if selected, an object.
This comes in handy for measuring objects on the page.
To restore the original ruler position and zero point:
• Double-click the tab marker on the ruler intersection.
To lock the rulers and prevent them from being moved:
• Choose Tools>Options>Layout and select the Rulers page, then
check Lock Rulers.
