Why Use a Zero-Centering Ruler?
Unlike traditional rulers that begin at one end, a zero-centering ruler places zero in the middle, allowing measurements to extend equally in both directions.
This makes it especially useful for:
- Centering objects
- Creating symmetrical layouts
- Design and drafting projects
- Pattern construction
- Measuring from a midpoint
