4D Write Pro – Say hello to Vertical ruler

We’re pleased to announce that a new feature has been added to 4D Write Pro. In page mode, a vertical ruler can be displayed on the left side of the page! This lets you graphically manage the vertical margins. And if your document contains headers or footers, the spaces between them and the body of your document can be modified easily thanks to this ruler.

To enable the vertical ruler, a new property is available from the property list. Just select the Show vertical ruler check box and you’re done.

Here’s a small video to demonstrate how it works:

You can also check out an HDI to see the new ruler in action!
