About the ruler

The WYSIWYG ruler allows you to view and set paragraph indents and page margin in your topics by dragging the left and right markers. These changes occur in the line or paragraph where the cursor is positioned and do not affect styles.

Selecting Ruler on the View menu displays the ruler at the top of the WYSIWYG editor. The default ruler setting shows the page layout in inches, but you can change it to centimeters, pixels, etc., depending on your preference. Just right-click on the ruler and select the measurement you want to use.
