Pixel Perfect Measurement

Screen Calipers

Computers are great at many things - sorting long lists, computing averages of sales, giving us thousands of new and interesting ways to waste time every day - but sometimes they have a lot of trouble with some of the simpler ones. Like figuring out if two things on your screen are aligned, or are the same height or width.

And, no, our graphics programs don't always do that. In fact, they hardly ever do that, at least not how we want them to. We just want to know if the leftmost bits line up, or if the boxes in the page start and stop on the same lines.

So we were pretty happy when we found Screen Calipers. Not only does it measure anything on our screen, but does it without hiding what's underneath. So we know our measurements are exact and perfect.

Screen Calipers are a unique on-screen measurement tool, that let you measure anything on your computer screen with complete accuracy.

Written by Roger Thomasson

Screen Calipers lets you:

  • Measure anything on your computer screen with ultimate accuracy.
  • Measure objects on pages, illustrations, photos, maps, blueprints, architectural drawings, digital xrays, EKGs, or ECGs.
  • See objects underneath the calipers, and change skins for specific uses.
  • Measure or align anything - even across windows, or at angles.

Who Needs Screen Calipers?
You do if you've ever:

  • Tried using a piece of paper to see if two things on your screen were aligned.
  • Tried using a real ruler to measure something on your screen.
  • Tried using another window to see if two things on your screen were the same width or height (and been frustrated when it covers up what you're trying to measure).
  • Wanted more accuracy than you could get with an onscreen ruler.
  • Pasted a screenshot into your graphics tool just so you could enlarge it and be sure your objects lined up correctly.
  • Counted the pixels between lines in Microsoft Paint.

Real Users Say

  • “As useful as a paperclip.”- Bryan at raremedium.com
  • “It is so good, I’m buying another for a friend.”- Eric Bass
  • “Anyone can find uses for this besides just measuring graphics or photos. It would be useful in cheaper CAD programs or when you need a quick check on size of an object. Great for lining things up as well. Many more uses that one could come up with besides the above.”- Solilai at earthlink.net
  • “This has to be the best program I ever downloaded. This is a perfect program to measure items on your html pages as well as other stuff. I use the program to align pictures on my site and to measure blank space on my site to make sure my pages always stay centered like I want them. This is shareware but can be used indefinitely for free with just a nag screen and a couple of disabled features. I still use 2.1 even though 2.2 is out. I just don't need the couple of new feature changes in 2.2. If you pay for the program you will get to use the custom tools and turn off the splash screen along with other measure types including a measure that will tell you how large an image will print from your printer. I like the free stuff and this is only one of 2 programs I have ever paid for that I did not have to. The other one was only 2.00. Every person with a website should have this one. Nothing else like this on the net.”- Oteotd
  • “Your programs are absolutely outstanding. They are a must for every webdesigner.”- Hermann at chello.at
  • “I have a problem convincing my optometrist about the distance between the center of my nose to each respective pupil. I broke my nose ski jumping some years back. I took a picture of my face, scanned it into the computer, used the caliper to show exact measurement (in units) of my pupil v. nose spacing ... to finally convince my doctor to take accurate measurements.”- Manfred

    I'm a real fan of the Screen Calipers, I've been using them for years for web development work. I'm definitely getting the Screen Measurement Pack with the Protractor and the Compass tomorrow!
