Setting the Counting Scale
You can use QuikRuler’s function to count areas or other components on your
drawing. For example, if you are using QuikRuler III to estimate how much electrical wiring
will be required for a building, you could use the function to count how many
electrical outlets will be needed. Normally, QuikRuler III counts by ones. However, you can
change the scale to something else using the function. For example, you can
use the function to tell QuikRuler III to count by fives, tens or some other value –
even fractions.
