How do you display rulers for the drafting...

Richard's Photo Richard 12 Oct 2021

Please excuse our ignorance as a new user trying our hand at CAD. How do we display rulers in the drawing area? We have checked the VIEW menu and searched HELP, but there are no topics for this common tool. Furthermore, we can display grids, but that does not display horizontal and vertical rulers either. Thank you for any assistance with a simple question!

Hi,
nanoCAD doesn't include rulers, but you can turn on and set the Grid.

It's great to see you're diving into the world of drafting in nanoCAD! It's like having a reliable guide by your side, ensuring your measurements are spot on. Personally, I find it essential for accurate drafting—it's like having a trusty compass on a voyage through design. As for displaying rulers, it's usually a straightforward process in most CAD software, including nanoCAD. Just explore the settings or toolbar options, and you should find the toggle for it.
