Meazure provides rulers that can be displayed on the screen. The background and border colors and opacity of the rulers can be changed from their defaults. The opacity can be changed from 100% (completely opaque) to 20% (nearly transparent).

Note: Ruler opacity is supported only on Windows 2000 and higher. For older versions of the Windows operating system, the opacity control is disabled and the rulers are displayed fully opaque.

To access the ruler preferences panel select the Preferences item on the Edit menu then select the Rulers tab on the Preferences dialog.
