Manga Studio FTW?

I’ve been experimenting with Manga Studio recently. There’s some stuff about it that I like (vectors and raster on the same drawing!), but every once in a while, I’m gobsmacked by the dumb. Like this:

Manga Studio rulers

If you turn on the canvas rulers, it marks out the measurements in whatever unit your canvas uses — I tend to go with inches. But it doesn’t give you, say, eighth-of-an-inch increments. It’s whole inches. Yargh.

Sure, I can switch over to cm or pixels, but why?

OpenOffice/LibreOffice occasionally switches the measurement unit to "line". As in, "paragraph spacing 0.02 line". Whatever that means. And I still haven't been able to figure out a) what causes it to do this or b) how to get it to stop. Really annoying. Software! Argh!
