A Ruler for Windows

A Ruler for Windows is a light and simple program that is exactly as its name suggests: a ruler which you can use to measure anything on your desktop. With this ruler, which has a number of different configuration options, you can measure any part of the desktop to the millimeter: anything from the distance between two icons to the length of the taskbar. It's up to you.

Customize your ruler

When you run the program for the first time, you will see that the ruler has a wooden style, with the lines and numbers at the top, though you can always customize the appearance of the ruler so it is to your liking. First, you can move both the numbers and the lines to the bottom of the ruler. You can also adjust the opacity, which is set to 100 by default. And not only can you choose from four different skins, you can also create your own skins for your ruler by importing an image.

Adjust the size of the ruler as needed

A Ruler for Windows, by default, is ten centimeters long. Now, in the same way that you can change the skin of the ruler, you can also adjust its length. You can make the ruler as big or as small as you want. Similarly, you can rotate the ruler so that, instead of being horizontal, it appears vertical. This way, it will be easier to measure certain elements of the screen.

Various keyboard shortcuts

A Ruler for Windows offers a series of very useful keyboard shortcuts which can save you a lot of time. For example, you can move the ruler around the screen with the arrow keys. By pressing "M" you can create a line right in the center of the ruler. By pressing "G", on the other hand, you can see the golden ratio on the ruler. You can check out all the available shortcuts in the Advanced Options menu.
