i learned how to use it one year ago.. maybe i still recall ..let's
see


you have a side of a rectangle wich is let's say 100 units wide.
now you take the side and divide it by that ratio so it looks
something like that

now you get a piece called the "minor" and one called the "Major"

you can use it for positioning stuff (like a spider for example) on a
piece of paper etc. so it looks good to the viewer


strange:
