Hi Philip,<br>
<br>
thanks for reporting. It turns out 99.99 is the default maximum
value for the control. I now set it to 99999.99, which should be
more than sufficient for pretty much any "normal" application.<br>
So this issue should be fixed in the latest development build.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
Stefan<br>

I am currently typesetting an honours board for a bowls club of
which I am a member, and the board (which is 244,5 cm x 122,5 cm)
will be partially masked by a mitred 5cm wide moulding. To check
that none of my typeset text or rules intrude into the 5 cm wide
notional border, I dragged TeXworks rulers to approximately the
correct positions and then double-clicked on each to read (and
adjust, if necessary) its position. The top and left rulers were
close, and easily corrected to exactly 5cm, but the right and
bottom, although <i>visually</i> in about the correct place, both
reported that they were at 99.9900 cm, which they were clearly
not. Pdf attached which can be opened in TeXworks previewer for
experiment.<br>
