Can I set ruler attributes?

[John Van Nest]

Hi all,

I have a basic request but can't seem to find IF or HOW I can do it in Aff Designer.

For instance, I'm drawing a new garage layout.  I want to use rulers, so I've chosen to View Rulers.  I'm using each 1 inch on the ruler to represent 2 feet in real life.  So far, so good.

NOW, if I can set each 1 inch on the ruler to have, for instance 8 subdivisions, each one of those would represent 3" in real life.  OR, if I can set each 1 inch on the ruler to have 12 subdivisions, each one of those would represent 2" in real life.  CAN I SET HOW MANY SUBDIVISIONS APPEAR WITHIN 1 INCH ON THE RULER?

If I'm able to do so, then I'd like my grid to simply correspond to those subdivisions on the ruler.  CAN I DO THIS, TOO? 

I used to do this easily in some other programs but can't seem to find a "ruler attributes" window.

Thanks so much if you have any info on this.

John

I think I have found a "workaround".  I guess Aff D uses the Grid Manager and Snapping Manager to handle the things I'm trying to do?

No can't modify the rulers at all..
