Markers on the ruler
In Publisher 2000, whenever I placed a picture or text box, there were small
black lines just inside the rulers that moved with the picture or text box, showing me the exact placement. I now have Publisher 2003, and it doesn't seem to have this feature. I'm hoping that it is available, but I just haven't figured out how to "turn it on" yet. |

Markers on the ruler
I just did today when I was working on this. But it's so faint, I could
barely see it. That's why I haven't seen it before now. Is there anyway to make it easier to see? Thanks!

I think it changes according to your Windows colour scheme. Try fiddling round with the colours in there and seeing what helps. -- Ed Bennett - MVP Microsoft Publisher http://ed.mvps.org/ |

Do you know exactly what you need to change in the "Advance Appearance
Settings"? There are so many things listed that I don't know which to change to acheive more contrast in the section next to the ruler. I have Publisher 2007 and am really frustrated that I can't see the boundaries of my drawings on the ruler any more. I read this post and went back to my publication and noticed a very tiny sliver next to the ruler where it shows the 'white bar', but the area on either side is very, very light blue and I cannot tell the difference.
