Show Ruler
The Show Ruler command displays or hides the rulers that border the top and left sides of the Preview
window. These rulers correspond to the rulers on your scanner’s object glass. Clicking on the Show Ruler
checkbox turns off (removes the checkmark) and hides the ruler. Clicking on the checkbox again turns the
feature on (displays a checkmark) and shows the ruler.

The Tips Help option determines whether tips are displayed when you pause with your cursor over a
VistaScan option. Click on the Tips Help box to enable tips (displays a checkmark). When a checkmark
appears, clicking the checkbox disables the tips and removes the checkmark.
