I've been looking for this and found nothing so i started it myself, and here it is!
PS: Don't belive that, listen the actual story
I searched for something like this and only found a simple ruler. Only had the 4 modes thing, the orientation and the cursor-following lines. But it didn't work fine. So i fixed the orientation, added a code i found here to make it with borders (6 to choose from =] ), added back and font color stuff, and changed the code cause before it didn't remember and load settings if u used it in an app.
So, here it is, what YOU have been looking for too! The ruler OCX!
Comes with full source, a little example form (u can see it in the screenshot) and a little request:
Please if u make any changes, tell me, or send me it so i can have it to (i have an app using this ruler and it will be great to improve it)
If u want to vote, i'll be glad. that way more users will know about this and they can help with it too hehe =]
Maybe not the best control in the world, but it's useful.
Hope u like it!!
