    Snipping Tool - Where is the Ruler?

    Hi,

    There was an update to Win11 and the Ruler feature on the Snipping tool has been removed. Why has this useful tool been removed? Instead there is a replacement tool called "shapes" - not the same thing as ruler, sorry.

    Please bring back the ruler feature on the snipping tool. Is there a reason why things that are useful are always taken away after a system update? This is a simple request: please stop doing that.

    Many thanks,

    will the ruler on the snipping tool return

    The Windows Snipping Tool does have a ruler function. Note that you may have to upgrade the tool from the Microsoft Store.
