Troubleshooting

Ruler slides during cutting

Ensure fabric is stable on your cutting mat. For added grip, consider using a non-slip ruler base or a dedicated ruler grip accessory.

Markings are difficult to see on certain fabrics

Try adjusting the lighting angle or use a different ruler orientation. For very specific color challenges, consider using a temporary fabric marker to highlight cut lines directly on the fabric.

Minor scratches on the surface

Small scratches are normal with use and typically do not affect functionality. If deep scratches impede visibility, consider replacing the ruler.
