Here you can see the default units set to inches but is there some way to show Feet and Inches or add another box that shows decimal feet? Like this: 211.19" 17.6'
I put together a little VBA macro with textboxes that display the width and height of the selection.
It's not as slick as using built-in CorelDRAW controls, and can't change the size of the selection, but it offers some flexibility for how the values are displayed. The user can select the units, the number of decimal places, and whether or not trailing zeroes are shown. It can also copy the text from a textbox to the Clipboard.
I haven't tested it very much, but if anyone is interested, I can put it up on my blog some time.
can we change the size as well in this macro? or this is just for the view?
This is just for viewing the size.
My AORP macro can be used to change the size of selected objects.
Both of those macros are only for CorelDRAW X7 and newer.
