WTF is the ruler for in Captivate. I turned the ruler on, expecting an InDesign experience. How lame could a ruler be. Rocked me back to Photoshop 3.0

    Captivate's rulers and guides have same functionality as in Photoshop and Illustrator.  Have a look at:

    They are indispensable to set up fluid boxes projects to set up layout of all master slides:

    BTW I find the way interactivity has to be set up in InDesign very cumbersome, reminds me of Captivate version 1.

    Where is the tab stops and indent layout functionality needed for text in content design?

    This is a small fraction of the missing design functionality of Captivate.
