  • You can easily setup ruler snapping in 5.1.41. We have done with the code below. The bindkeys I defined allow you to start and stop the ruler with the middle mouse button and it will snap to edges within the aperture defined on the Layout Editor Options form.

    procedure(mySnappingRuler()
      let((gravity infix depth type bouncex bouncey rptVar)
        if(hiGetCurrentCmd(hiGetCurrentWindow()) == "Ruler" then
            mouseAddPt()
        else
            infix   = hiGetCIWindow()->infix
            gravity = envGetVal("layout" "gravityOn")
            depth   = envGetVal("layout" "gravityDepth")
            type    = envGetVal("layout" "gravityType")
            bouncex = envGetVal("layout" "gravityBounceX")
            bouncey = envGetVal("layout" "gravityBounceY")
            envSetVal("layout" "gravityOn"      'boolean t)
            envSetVal("layout" "gravityDepth"   'int     20)
            envSetVal("layout" "gravityType"    'string  "edge")
            envSetVal("layout" "gravityBounceX" 'float   0)
            envSetVal("layout" "gravityBounceY" 'float   0)
            hiGetCIWindow()->infix = t
            rptVar=envGetVal("layout" "modalCommands")
            envSetVal("layout" "modalCommands" 'boolean nil)
            leHiCreateRuler()
            envSetVal("layout" "modalCommands" 'boolean rptVar)
            envSetVal("layout" "gravityOn"      'boolean gravity)
            envSetVal("layout" "gravityDepth"   'int     depth)
            envSetVal("layout" "gravityType"    'string  type)
            envSetVal("layout" "gravityBounceX" 'float   bouncex)
            envSetVal("layout" "gravityBounceY" 'float   bouncey)
            hiGetCIWindow()->infix = infix
        )
      ) ;let
    ) ;proc

    hiSetBindKey("Layout" "<Btn2Down>" "mySnappingRuler()")
    hiSetBindKey("Layout" "<Btn2Down> EF" "mySnappingRuler()")

    You can define the aperture per user using:
    envSetVal("layout" "gravityAperture" 'float 0.5)
