Could someone else than me test the patch and report back, please?
I won't continue with improvements until the more experienced devs agree that
this is the way to go.
cheers

@jarl-arntzen: Thanks. Even though I spent many days trying to get this
little bit of patch working (mainly because of lack of experience), I'm
not sure if this idea of mine will be an accepted solution and make it
into the official build. I'm not against receiving money but especially
in this
I tried looking at the svg side and I'm a little confused.
How about, as a first step, modifying inkscape so that rulers and mouse pointer
coordinate status use the origin that is indirectly defined by the viewbox?
What about the viewbox units? Second step would be a gui to actually configure
I tried to simply add a multiplier and an offset for each ruler which
seems to work as expected. (I did not yet manage to link scalar input
values of the gui to the actual values but this should not be hard.)
This idea could solve the problem of some users I guess, however there would be
a few
I have partly implemented what I described in #57, I still have work to do on
the GUI elements.
See attached image for how it could look like (this is also the easiest to
implement that I can think of for now).
@lemasney: I did not quite understand, click and drag on that corner then moves

Due to some problems I have with the gui and to make future changes
easier, I'm rewriting the gui code I had so far.
@jarl-arntzen: have you tested my partial solution?

@lemasney: here is a partially working first step to a possible solution which
only affects rulers and mouse pointer status coordinates:

I rewrote the gui code and hopefully fixed all issues, please test.
Use the patch or branch

future work:
- for convenience, add buttons to set origin relative to page (see #62)
- for convenience, add draggable origin (see #61, #63)

I wrote scripts writing out geometries at scale (in mm). For debugging
and other purposes it is most useful if the numeric values in the
document stay these numbers and the rulers also show the same numbers.
This is not only useful for the scale but also where on the page the
origin is
@ yharrow
I did create a patch to just visually change the ruler and coordinate display,
but more experienced devs pointed out that this was not the best way to address
the issue (see #76).
Time has passed, I don't know how much work is still necessary. I'd also love
to see a fix and still
