Setting the Counting Scale

You can use QuikRuler’s

function to count areas or other components on your

drawing. For example, if you are using QuikRuler III to estimate how much electrical wiring

will be required for a building, you could use the

function to count how many

electrical outlets will be needed. Normally, QuikRuler III counts by ones. However, you can

change the scale to something else using the

function. For example, you can

use the

function to tell QuikRuler III to count by fives, tens or some other value –

even fractions.

Change the Counting Scale

1. Click on the

QuikRuler displays the current counting scale under the flashing cursor.

2. Select the appropriate number on the QuikRuler Menu. For example, click on the

and

buttons if you want to count by tens.
