Hi

We want to be able to have multiple rulers at the same time for comparison between different measuring units!!!

Possible?

Ta!

What a good idea Dave.

Would it work to use the camera to take pictures of different rulers and save them as objects? Some features are lost, of course. This idea was suggested by another member to meet a different need. Perhaps it would work here, too?

Great idea Tom! [clap]

I have used the camera tool to take snap shots of the rulers and I have also made a blank ruler. The inch ruler may need to be made slightly larger to make it work properly (I couldn't remember if it was 2.2cm or 2.5cm to an inch!)

Already done that for the tutor who asked me - WAY ahead of you. Would be brilliant if could be considered anyway :)

Hi Dave,
All ideas posted here are considered. We weigh up all suggestions and balance that in terms of time and resource to implement them. We are really concentrating on useability improvements rather than new features at present. So any suggestions to make using the hardware and software more intuitively or more quickly would be gratefully received.

In that case, get those actions organised a bit better, it's a nightmare trying to navigate your way through that dropdown menu! +wave+
