Guide measurements don't account for changed ruler origin?


Recommended Posts

I've seen this mentioned in the Suggestions forum, but not in the Publisher Bugs forum, but I don't recall seeing any comment from Serif. I'm mentioning it here to suggest that it be investigated as a possible bug.

  1. Edit the ruler origin. For example, drag it 1 inch to the right and 1 inch down in the page.
  2. Drag a new horizontal or vertical guide onto the page.
  3. If you watch the tooltip as you're dragging the guide, it still starts measuring 0 at the original ruler origin (top left corner of the page). Thus, by the time the guide reaches the new origin point, the tooltip will show that it's at 1 inch, not at 0.
