The visibility of rulers appears to be saved on a per-document basis, which means I must manually Show Rulers every time I launch Pixelmator Pro and create a new document. Please add a preference that allows users to have the rulers visible by default.

Yep, at the moment, Rulers stay on for all documents during the same editing session but it would probably make sense to them as an app-wide preference. I've passed your suggestion on to the team!

So, has the team done anything about this? I, for one, would really, really like the rulers to stay on all the time on all views of everything. So, pass along a jog in memory???

So, has anything been done yet? It's been almost 2 years. Having to enable showing rulers every time I launch Pixelmator is extremely annoying. Please, fix it eventually.

by brumby That's definitely a bug! Too bad the developers are too lazy to fix it.
That's definitely the way to get what you want, sweet talking the developers!
