======
Rulers
======

You can overlay horizontal and vertical rulers on a web page:

.. image:: viewport_rulers.png
  :class: center

The units are in pixels.

The dimensions of the viewport are displayed near the top-right corner of the viewport.

To be able to toggle rulers for a page, you first need to enable the button by going to the settings page for the Developer Tools and checking "Toggle rulers for the page" under Available Toolbox Buttons.

  :class: center

Once enabled, the "Toggle rulers for the page" button appears at the top right of the Toolbox, in the same place as the Settings/Options button.

  :class: center


Behavior to keep in mind when using rulers:

- The rulers command must be reapplied in **new tabs** and after **each page refresh.**
- The command isn't permanent.
