2. The '0' on ruler is partly cut off.
Can those who want rules try the new BETA i just uploaded and let me know if you think it's actually useful (and how so?).
text showing you the exact size of your selection at the bottomWell... 1) the #s at screen bottom are usually small (in this case - very).
Personally, I'd like more people to help light a fire under Renegade's butt to get him to finish this ruler (https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=5490.0). I have found it to be quite useful for just about anything I could need a ruler on my screen for.Cor, strike a light, I'll match that request! :onfire:-app103 (September 08, 2013, 06:01 PM)
...If people can tell me a good usecase for rulers i might implement them.Well, quite coincidentally, last night I was doing some seriously careful clipping of SSC captures of scrolling images from my browser. The images were of pages of text from one of those sites that won't let you read more than a couple of pages of stuff without your joining their blasted website. The scrolling capture was really messy because of the proprietary display - SSC could not compensate for it, and there was a lot of duplicated text on either side of the "joins".-mouser (May 07, 2013, 02:10 PM)
As I was working on the page images though, I did wish for rulers in both axes...I was trying to ensure that each page ended up as the same height and width. This was quite difficult to do without rulers, and I ended up having to do everything by eye (using my visual judgement).
The only thing that I would like is to be able to copy the standard dimensions so as to somehow instantly create the same sized rectangle on each successive image to have its excess trimmed off. That would be less tedious and less error-prone than dragging the rectangle out to that fixed size each time.

You've got two good options here:Does that help?
- In the Edit -> Select menu you'll see an item labeled "Reselect Last region size" that can be used to reselect the same sized region as you previously selected; you can then move that region around if you need.
- You can also set your own custom region sizes any time you want on the MyFavorites option tab, and these are available in the Edit -> Select Preset Region menu and toolbar.

As for your pointing to the status bar showing the currently selected region size -- that's one of the things we have been discussing, whether that info might be displayed in much larger font with additional info, on an optional top panel that would make it easier to read.-mouser (September 10, 2013, 07:28 PM)
The only remaining issue is probably that the little yellow circles (handles) for the sides of the rectangle, and the rectangle itself, do not behave consistently and sometimes play up a bit as I described previously.
It's really easy to add custom tools to the Tool menu -- you can do that entirely from within the program.it is surreal to see my custom tools menu from 3 years ago. btw, some of the tools are quite obsolete due to advances in SC. however, the idea is still valid.
You can also create little .sctool files (https://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=18897.0) which can be shared so that others don't even have to do that much.-mouser (September 10, 2013, 10:51 PM)
