Default changing nudge distance default

I submitted a question asking how to reduce the nudge distance default from
0.01 to 0.001.

I received a response with the following link:

http://www.microsoft.com/wn3/aspx/no.../www.microsoft.
com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx%3fdg%3dmicrosoft.public.
publisher%26mid%3df073d846-47b4-4b92-9ba6-f46e73f05e5f

I am unable to get this link to open.

Can anyone answer my original question or tell me how to open this link?

By the way, I use Mozilla Firefox as my web browser.

You have two answers to your original post under a different name...why not
just scroll down and read them?

Perhaps because the problem is that she cannot get the response to open.

Although how she will be able to read the responses to _this_ message, I
don't know!

What is really crazy is, I went to test this in Publisher 2007. I entered
0.001" for the nudge distance. I then get a dialog that says I must enter a
number that is between 0.001" and 2".

It also doesn't accept 0.002, which is between 0.001" and 2". It will let me
do a minimum of 0.005".

That would be a bug.

The ruler guides can be set for .001 increments, if the snap is on, the nudge
will snap to this small increment. You have to zoom to see it happen.

I just find it interesting that someone needs to nudge something that
distance. I've worked on mechanical drawings for parts with a looser
tolerance than that. I would have thought that nudging something a hundredth
of an inch would have been close enough. Guess not.

Dunno how you'd even see an increment that small.

That's my point and I'd be happy with .01.

A bug?! In Publisher 2007?! Surely not!

Great to see you back around here, Brian
