Hello Buddy:

This tool is in v11 only: go to Tools/Program Preferences/Interface/Calibrate and you'll need to scale the vertical and horizontal lines -- and enter the actual lengths in decimal inches. It would be more intuitive if we could do distances just like we do when drawing, but never the less, we have to do decimals. If you don't have an engieering scale handy, then you'll need to do the division (11/16=0.6875) to get this precisely.

This not only calibrates the ratio of height to width, but also gets the actual size of t hings to be pretty accurate.
