    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,

    :)

    What happened to the Snipping Tool Ruler?

    Hello! I just noticed the Snipping Tool Ruler option has disappeared. This allowed me to highlight & draw straight lines after I snip/copy an image. It's missing & I need this reactivated. Is anyone aware of any other options? Not sure why Microsoft has possibly removed this from the Snipping tool. Has this happened to anyone else? Thanks!

    I have version 11.2401.37.0 of the snipping tool and the ruler is also AWOL. I use this daily and would really like this put back/fixed.
