Setting measurement units and drawing scale

For precision drawing, you need techniques that allow you to position and draw
accurately without effort, that will also be of use at any scaled size. Such
techniques make use of rulers and guides for actual-size or scaled drawings.

Rulers

The DrawPlus rulers mimic the paste-up artist's T-square, and acts as a
measuring tool and guide creator. The rulers that surround the page allow you to
measure the exact position of an object.
Ruler units used by DrawPlus determine the units displayed on the rulers and
the reported units shown when positioning and scaling objects (either around
the object or on the HintLine). You can change the ruler units without altering
the document's dimensions. Unit settings are saved with your DrawPlus
document; as a result loading different documents, templates, etc. may change
your working measurement units.
To change the page unit:
Choose Options... from the Tools menu (Layout>Display), then select
from the Ruler Units drop-down list.
Ruler Units are equivalent to Page Units unless you're working on a
scale drawing. For example, at 100% zoom, one ruler centimetre
equals one centimetre on the printed page.

Moving rulers

By default, the horizontal ruler lies along the top of the DrawPlus window and
the vertical ruler along the left edge. The default ruler intersection is the top-left
corner of the pasteboard area. The default zero point (marked as 0 on each
ruler) is the top-left corner of the page area.
To move either ruler to a different position,
click and drag on the ruler intersection button
(showing the type of measurement unit).
