auflauf Posted September 26, 2020 Posted September 26, 2020 Hello! I cannot get it right to interactively move the 0,0 origin of the rulers/spread origin. I am able to move the origin by opening the menu "view/Guides manager" and then put in values for xy-offset. This is cumbersome if I want to have 0,0 at a given point in an image. The procedure described in the manual "To reposition the spread origin: Do one of the following: Drag from the default horizontal/vertical ruler intersection at the top left of your document view to position the spread origin on the page. If snapping has been activated, the spread origin will be able to snap to objects on the page." doesn't work here, I cannot move the rulers when dragging from the 0,0-intersection. Could someone be so kind to describe verbosely what to do to drag the origin? Regards! Quote
R C-R Posted September 26, 2020 Posted September 26, 2020 Dragging the 0,0 point on the ruler should work when most but not all tools are selected. If you are having problems with this I suggest trying it with the Move Tool selected.

auflauf Posted September 26, 2020 Author Posted September 26, 2020 Thanks for your help! Works after restarting the program. Strange, but fine then. Quote
