I've been reading about non slip rulers. Has anyone tried the craft glue dots to keep a ruler from slipping? There is no drying time with those. Thanks for your input.

I started out with the plastic film, then press on plastic feet, then press on sand paper dots.
So many ways to do it.
Did not like the plastic feet, they catch on fabric cause they sit to high.
Have not tried glue yet, so far nothing is perfect.

I have the sandpaper ones on mine...but make sure you turn them "up" if around wood furniture so they don't scratch.
