Personally I would rather use the menu than these small buttons.
But if that's the preferred way for you, I can try and do it. Doesn't
sound too complicated, also there are already buttons below the vertical
scrollbar. Can you give me Code Pointers to that?
Honestly, I would encourage not to have a show/hide ruler button in the
scroll bar area, as:
1) There would be size problems, as there are with the navigation buttons
at the bottom of the scrollbar, which are barely usable since they're so
small.
2) There would be icon problems, as there are with the navigation buttons.
(On Linux, only a fourth of the circular "Navigation" icon is visible.)
3) It detracts from the general aesthetic.
4) It's not likely to be used often (a user who uses rulers often can keep
them on at all times, a user that doesn't will rarely need the button),
therefore it doesn't need up-front placement.
If you think we really need an up-front ruler toggle, how about putting it
in the Standard toolbar, next to the other "View" buttons ("Navigator",
"Gallery" "Data Sources", "Non-Printing Characters)? Or, if you think that
would stretch the Standard toolbar too much, you could put all of these
commands under a "View" drop-down.
