moving ruller or line to see if even
hi
Is there a way to move a line or the ruler down, so you can check if something is at the same height or width. Instead of putting the grid lines on? Similar to Publisher, where you can move an invisible line down from the ruler? Thanks Bruce |

This subject came up at the MVP Summit--that it would be really helpful if
there were some way to pull "guidelines" in Word--but alas, no, there is no such feature in word. What I do is this: For horizontal alignment, I drag a tab stop on the ruler. When you do that, it creates a broken line going down the page that can help you see alignment. For vertical alignment, I just scroll the window till the side-by-side objects are near that top or bottom. Or you could create an actual drawing line (temporarily) and move it around. -- Suzanne S.
