Smaller measurements than 1/4" - is it possible?

I would love to have the mat show marks for 1/32" or even 1/8".
Is this possible?

No help here? If it's not possible I'll work around it. Confirmation on this though would eliminate my 'hopeful desire'.

I think you would be better off to just type in the x and y positions in the properties window than to have such small divisions on the mat.

Go to Edit - Preferences - Grid
In Gridline Every enter 0.0625 and hit enter
In Subdivisions enter 2 and hit enter
Click OK
You may not see any change, just alter your zoom or move the mat with the hand tool.
Bingo just what you want?

I was playing with the grid setting too and could not get it to work. Did it for you as I get a message that says "The mark size must be between 1 and 10." Tried all kinds of combinations with no luck. Using eCAL and not SCAL, but that shouldn't make a difference.

Sandy, That sounds just like the bug I have in eCAL when I try to change my Print2Cut settings with the newer versions.

Sorry to hear it didn't work for you. 
I am using SCAL3 on Windows 7 Home 64 bit.
I don't have your software so I am afraid I can't help more.

Close eCAL for the night and opened this morning and guess what....the grid changes were there. Guess closing and opening took care of it even though I got that error reading.
