PixelStick overview

PixelStick is a tool for measuring distances, angles, and colors on the screen. PhotoShop has distance, angle and color tools but they only work in PhotoShop. PixelStick works in any app and anywhere on screen anytime and costs a hundred times less.

Its easy, simple and fast. PixelStick is a measuring tool you can pinch and stretch to measure anything on your screen. Use the eyedropper to copy colors in 4 formats (CSS, RGB, RGB hex, HTML) to the clipboard for use in any app.
Its like an onscreen virtual ruler that you can use vertically, horizontally, and at any angle to measure distances, angles, and much more just by dragging.
Supports the scaling in Google Maps, Yahoo Maps, and Photoshop. Also has Customized (user settable) scaling options.

Most of what PixelStick does is obvious. Drag the endpoints to change the measurement. Click the locks to constrain the movement. Launch it, play around, no more limitations to just one app in measuring distance, angle, and color.

An incredibly useful app for working developing digital models from screenshots and on-screen maps. Would be a clean 5 stars if there would not be a bug that multiplies custom values by 100 whatever I do (which is an improvement, formerly the bug multiplied the value by 500 each time I used it). But apart from that it is really, really well-desingned and well-behaved, and, as I said, simply extremely useful in many circumstances.

I've been using Pixelstick for years. When I have to line up staves in a music book precisely horizontally or vertically this is my goto app! There are more complex tools for measuring distance, but for lining things up on a screen, it doesn't get much better or simpler. Good support also!
