Ruler Fixes

For starters, I know there's been complaints about this before, (<a href="http://community.roll20.net/discussion/702/token-movement-distances/p1" rel="nofollow">http://community.roll20.net/discussion/702/token-movement-distances/p1</a>) but there needs to be a 3.5 toggle for diagonal movement. It is core gameplay mechanics and sort of important. However, that's not what I'm here to ask specifically. I would like the ruler to appear as you move your character. It skips an obnoxious step of having to measure, remember and then putting your character in that exact spot. Again though, I'm pretty sure this has been discussed before. But a small suggestion I do have is having a shortcut pointer when pressing spacebar. A simple arrow following your cursor, that everyone can see. I know I could use the ruler for that, but it's rather flowbreaking having to exchange tools all the time. I don't want the ruler gone however. It is very much of use for ranged attack or magic. I also love the aura, maybe even having a circle ruler in its submenu for grenade-sorts of damage.

For keeping track of token movement check out this thread here.
Can the ruler be set to automatically changed based on grid size? I know that if I leave the grid to 1 (I assume that is 1 inch) the ruler works well, but if I change the grid to .75 the ruler still stays at 1 inch=5ft. So in this example where I move 6 squares (30 ft) in a .75 grid, the rulers will show just over 20ft. If I bring the grid size to .5, then each 2 square movement will read as 5 ft instead of 10.
Hector Hernandez, I agree, currently the Ruler can't accept a value such as .75; and concerning what you are saying of the grid as well, I believe that I made a related point here, in The updated Ruler Tool: <a href="http://community.roll20.net/discussion/2136/the-updated-ruler-tool#Item_1" rel="nofollow">http://community.roll20.net/discussion/2136/the-updated-ruler-tool#Item_1</a>
