And the option of creating the ruler in a new layer, which is pre-selected. Set a perspective with one point of perspective or two points and finally three or more points of perspective. This is particularly important to me in my scrapbooking. Select the menu Layer > Ruler / Frame > Create perspective ruler Then you can choose between 3 options. Since I haven't shelled out the money for the Genesis yet, I find that the perfect layers is a decently priced substitute that helps me to make layers more straight and more even. That is an unlikely event with the cutters/trimmers that are on the market today, with the exception of the Genesis Trimmer IMO. To achieve a perfect mat one needs to be sure the pieces have been cut near perfectly to size. In theory this is easy, however, in practice it is more difficult to accomplish. Ok.I didnt make it sound very simple.maybe that tool IS the way to go.LOL. If you want say 1/4" of bottom mat (card) showing you need to actually cut your cardstock 1/2" smaller than the bottom card (1/4" for both sides of the square) When you center these card pieces on top of each other you'll have 1/4" of the bottom piece showing all the way around. Ok that sounds confusing I suppose but it isnt really.
If your card front is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 and you want it showing, say 1/8" under your "mat" you just cut your largest "mat" at 4 x 5 1/4 (which means you are making your mat 1/4" smaller than the original card size.) Another mat means cutting your next piece short again by whatever amount you want showing. I guess my experience as a picture framer makes me a little bias but I personally don't have this on my wish list.and I don't eye ball my mats :( I do however, make perfect mats (because of my framing experience) It's easy really.
