Dear all
I would like to see the actual design size, but i found it is not possible. if i keep the 100% zoom even though it is not correct. For instance if i have taken 3 cm width & 8 cm height : like to see the actual print size. is it possible or any idea. I am getting the exact size only when i have a print.
with regards
ram
To get to exact size on the monitor, you have to set up the calibration of the rulers. You do this by going (menu) Tools->Options->Workspace->Toolbox->Zoom, Hand Tool and then click on button labeled "Calibrate Rulers...". Once there, you can set your display so that when you select a zoom factor of 100%, your 3cm object will display at 3cm on the screen.
Hope this is what you are looking for.
I could not understand how to calibrate the rulers, it displayed Horizontal & vertical Resolution pixels per meter. Can u please explain me clearly how this could i have to be done in order to achieve the actual zoom factor i.e., 100%.
regards
I have calibrated my display & to me it shows the actual print size on screen. Try doing this.
To get horizontal No. of pixels : (Enter this value for calibrating Horizontally)
horizontal resolution set for display / Actual horizontal display size of your monitor in inches
To get Vertical No. of pixels : (Enter this value for calibrating vertically)
Verticle resolution set for display / Actual Verticle display size of your monitor in inches

Thank u anand, Its working but the when i choose 100% zoom it is displaying only 71% but when scaled the object the measurement is ok. What could be the problem.
I also have observed this but am not really able to figure out WHY. In fact it should show the zoom level as 100% and an "*" to indicate that its a customised ruler calibration.
