Rulers visible

Specifies whether to display the rulers at the top and to the left of the work area.

Helplines While Moving

Specifies whether to display guides when moving an object.

Office creates dotted guides that extend beyond the box containing the selected object and which cover the entire work area, helping you position the object.

You also can use this function through the iconiconicon with the same name in the Options bar if a presentation or a drawing document is opened.

All control points in Bézier editor

Displays the control points of all Bézier points if you have previously selected a Bézier curve. If the All control points in Bézier editor option is not marked, only the control points of the selected Bézier points will be visible.

Contour of each individual object

Office displays the contour line of each individual object when moving this object. The Contour of each individual object option enables you to see if single objects conflict with other objects in the target position. If you do not mark the Contour of each individual object option, Office only displays a square contour that includes all selected objects.
