• You can temporarily change the unit of measure used by the Inspector by clicking the units label. To change the default unit of measurement, see Using graphic rulers and ruler gridlines.
• To precisely position an object while dragging it, note the values in the Inspector. The values dynamically update to reflect the position as you move an object.
