Ruler Zero Point

Is there any way to reset the Ruler Zero point so it is not in the center of
the page? I want to put in the upper right similar to Word.

Hi Jeff,

I don't think so. You can choose to show/not show the
vertical and horizontal rulers, but you can't customize
them.

You might find it helpful to turn on the grid: click on
View, Grid and Guides.

No, but if you want to get measurements from a particular point, drag the
guides to the starting point then hold down Shift while you drag the guide to
the point you want to measure; while you're dragging, the little tooltip
readout will show you how far you are from the starting point rather than the
distance from center of slide.
