How does one change the measurements from inches/cm on the ruler?

RE: ruler

Hi Tanya,

Thanks for the question

By default, the ruler in PowerPoint will displays measurements in inches. If you want to view centimeters, you must change the configuration of Microsoft Windows. You cannot change the measurement units directly in PowerPoint.

In Windows click Start, and then click Control Panel.
Double-click Regional Options or Regional and Language Options.

Hope that helps

Tracy

 

Powerpoint tip:

Change the Print button so it brings up the Print dialogue box

If you want to bring up the Print dialogue box to check your print settings when you hit the Print button, do the following:

1. Right-click on the toolbar that displays the Print button.

2. Select Customise.

3. Click on the Print button on the toolbar to select it, then hold the left mouse button down and drag the button towards the screen below. The button should come off the toolbar.

4. In the Customise dialogue box on your screen, select the Commands tab.

5. Select File from the Categories list, and then locate the Print... icon (looks like the normal Print button, but the word Print has three dots following it).

6. Click on the Print... icon to select it, then use your left mouse to drag and drop the icon onto the toolbar at the top of the screen.

7. Close the Customise dialogue box.
