Setting the Scale Automatically
On maps and many other types of drawings, you
will find a scale diagram in the drawing's legend.
You can use this diagram to set the measure-
ment scale automatically. You simply mark the
starting and ending points of the legend and tell
QuikRuler the distance between the two points.
On other types of drawings, you can set the
scale automatically using a straight surface in
the drawing that is of a known length. Again, you
mark the starting and ending points of the
surface and tell QuikRuler the distance between
the two points.
.... or you can use known
distances on your drawing
