Yes!

You can be more aware of the design's elements, their dimensions and placement with our hottest new feature - the ruler.

There are several amazing tools and features available on Picmaker that no one ever talks about. Rulers are an amazing set of built-in Picmaker tools that work well both individually AND together with Guides.

Here's a step by step guide on how you can do this.

Step 2: Create or open an existing design.

Step 3: From the menu above the editor, click File. Go to Advanced Settings and select Show Ruler.

And that's it!

Continue editing your designs, aligning important elements in direction to the margin and you're good to go!

Our final tip is that the light gray indicators they display when you move elements around on the page shows you an element’s exact placement in width and height. Use this as a second layer of accuracy so you can better judge how everything is lined up and spaced out evenly to match whatever requirements you have for your design.
