Very good ideas in my opinion. And maybe the ruler could be resized by pulling the edges? SVN commit 917321 by msoeken: Changing the offset via the mouse wheel is now possible when holding the left mouse button. When just using the wheel you can resize the ruler pixel by pixel. When changing offset or length via wheel the new offset and length are displayed in the label on the ruler, respectively CCBUGS: 87987 M +42 -8 klineal.cpp M +1 -0 klineal.h WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=917321 SVN commit 923701 by msoeken: Add buttons to rotate the ruler (turn left, turn right). The buttons are only visible when hovering over the ruler and if they are configured to be visible (default: not visible).

Version: (using KDE KDE 3.3.0) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages How about a little rotate-button on the ruler? Changing the orientation with the context menu is pretty complicated compared to the simplicity of the program itself and shortcuts are hard to memorize.. ok, not not really, but rotate buttons (or just one) would be very conveniant, since it must be rotated quite often. Or how about a shaped window which is composed of a vertical and a horizontal ruler? Also I don't see what sense the distinct orientations North/South and East/West make. Why not simply showing the ticks on both sides? There is enough space for it. __________ |________ | | | | | <-- Next-generation ruler prototype | | |_|
