Hi all,
 
Is there a way to switch between using metric (millimeters) and "SAE" or non-metric as the grid scale? I have a fairly mature form already...but it is using inches and that just doesn't seem to give me the granularity of control I want. I am having a hard time positioning certain fields just right.
 
I tried looking under File>Form Properties and under Tools>Options but not seeing it.
 
Using LiveCycle ES 2 on Windows XP box.
 
Thank you.

Hi,

you can simply change the measurement when you double click on the ruler in Designer:

Radzmar,

Sweet!! Feeling pretty dumb right now actually. Mind you I've asked 3 people in my office and none of them knew. I'd actually solved the "can't quite position them just right" issue I had. Turns out I had snap to grid enabled. Still you have answered my question and I learned even more.

Thank you.
