A Better Ruler

[ttibsen]

Am I missing something in the settings that would enable a ruler with numbers on it to measure inches like a tape measure? The way the ruler is now is great for drawing straight lines, at precise angles no less, but it would be really nice to have the inches numbered off. The way it is now, it's very difficult to draw 2 lines of equal lengths due to the lack of markings. Just a thought to improve an already impressive app.

I think the best you've got at this stage is to use the lines which appear and draw from one marking to the other then move the ruler and draw from and to the same markings on the ruler. Or are you saying you don't even see the basic markings?

For feature suggestions I would recommend heading over to the Fresco Uservoice page, search for an existing similar request and add or upvote it. Or create a new topic if nothing already exists.

Thanks for the responses - no, I do see the basic markings on the ruler - that's not the problem. I need numbers on the ruler which we don't have. I will add my 2 cents worth to the list. Good to know that I am not the only one that misses this feature

I've been wanting this for a long time. Frustrating that they dont have numbers on there!

There is no units on the ruler yet. Just markings, it would be indded a very good idea!
The best bet is to ask for it, using the link @Sjaani provided.

I think it's even already been suggested, so you can vote for it!
