--- Comment #12 from R. Bingham <[email protected]> ---
I suggest part of this rulers view issue is a user uncertainty in expected
behavior. In the View->Normal view (physical page emulation) with rulers
enabled:

A) In one model, all emulated physical pages having even a partial appearance
in the document pane are expected to be rendered with associated rulers
visually adjacent in full or part.

B) In a second model, the existing behavior of only rulers for the active (by
cursor placement) page are rendered.

C) Something else.

Let us say I as a user enable rulers in Normal view and the behavior does meet
my expectations. Is this a bug or something I just do not understand. Hmmm...
review the documentation at 

https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/swriter/guide/ruler.html?DbPAR=WRITER#bm_id8186284

which is silent on intended ruler view and rendering behavior (other than
enable/disable menu choices).

I suggest a documentation update indicating that rulers are only rendered for
the active page would at least indicate intended behavior. A user may not be
pleased with the intended behavior but at least would know it is not a bug.

Regards.
