Affinity Designer ruler


Recommended Posts

1. Would it be possible in one of the next updates to make the rulers show metric divisions in ten sub-divisions. For example, if I am using a metric rulers, the divisions between cm for example, are not 10, but 5. This makes it very difficult and awkward to measure correctly dimensions using the rulers.

 

2. Could you also make the zero coordinate of the ruler system be flexible, and to be moved to wherever you want to measure within a drawing. Something like PhotoShop and CorelDraw have. Not having 10 subdivisions in the metric system (the first issue above) it makes almost impossible to precisely measure an element in the drawing that is not aligned exactly to the origin top left hand corner.

I would also like to see the inches ruler divided into 1/8 inch increments instead of 1/32 increments. Or better yet, leave it at 1/32 increments, but make the tick marks progressively longer for 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 inch increments. As it is, all tick marks are the same length (except 1/2 inch, which is slightly longer). As noted above, these tiny marks are difficult to see and follow. Thank you.
