In MS Word, what is the purpose of the Ruler?
Answer: D
Correct answer: To set margins, indents and tab stops
The Ruler shows the width of the text area and provides direct control over margins, indents and tab stops. It is displayed from the View tab. Four markers appear on the horizontal ruler and each does something different. The upper triangle sets the first-line indent; the lower triangle sets the hanging indent, which affects every line except the first; the small rectangle beneath moves both together as the left indent; and the triangle at the right sets the right indent. Tab stops are set by clicking on the ruler, and the box at its left end cycles through the types - left, centre, right, decimal and bar. The decimal tab is the one to use for columns of figures, since it aligns the decimal points however many digits precede them. The grey areas at each end represent the page margins, which can be dragged directly.
