Only a horizontal and vertical ruler, but accurate.

I recently installed PixelWindow which works on Windows 7; a lot of them I found do not. PixelWindow works BUT.... it is an AdobeAir app, which I hate. So I used it for what I needed at the time and then dumped it.

Thanks!

Jim

BTW, neither of the other apps mentioned here work on Win7, or at least they claim not to.

jruler is a portable, no install app
it works on windows 7
inches, pixels and more
plus you can have as many rulers as you want up and running

Thanks. I didn't realize it was portable. I just saw these things on their site:
JR Screen Ruler (For Windows 95/98/2000/NT/ME/XP)

Copyright © 2000-2005 Spadix Software.

....and figured that the code hasn’t been touched since 2005, before Win7 was available to developers.

Thanks!

Jim
