MarilynG Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 The Text Ruler worked fine on the previous version, but I can't get it to appear in 337. Mac OS 10.12.6 & Chrome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted May 27, 2019 Staff Share Posted May 27, 2019 Hi MarilynG, Welcome to Affinity Forums If you click once with the Move Tool in a Text Frame it becomes selected but the ruler doesn't appear. You may just want to move it. If you click on it with a text tool or double-click it with the Move Tool it should then display the text frame ruler (menu View > Show Text Ruler must be enabled). Can you check if this is what's going on in your case? Thanks. A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarilynG Posted May 27, 2019 Author Share Posted May 27, 2019 Yes, View - Show Text Ruler is enabled. I've tried everything you've suggested in an attempt to get that text ruler to show again--but to no avail. (Multiple times.) (btw double-click with Move Tool changes tool to Text Tool). I don't know what else to try to format the footer--except 3 small text frames... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted May 27, 2019 Staff Share Posted May 27, 2019 Can you please upload the .afpub file using this link so we can take a look? It may also be a casual glitch which should be fixed by a reset but I would like to check the file first.

For what it is worth, I am on Mac Sierra, v. 10.12.6 and using Beta v. 337 have just opened a new document, created a text frame, and the text ruler was right there. I have View>Show Text Ruler checked as it has been for every new beta build, and it is still checked. 24" iMAC Apple M1 chip, 8-core CPU, 8-core GPU, 16 GB unified memory, 1 TB SSD storage, Ventura 13.6.

Peter J G Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 I also did what jmwellborn did, and it also worked the same for me. I'm using an iMac 10.14.5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarilynG Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 Duh! I restarted my computer & now I have the text rulers back again. Sorry for the kerfuffle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted May 29, 2019 Staff Share Posted May 29, 2019 Thanks for the file MarilynG and sorry the delay getting back to you. It is indeed working fine here. Apparently it was just a casual glitch which the restart took care of. Glad to know it's working fine again for you.
