screenruler - a graphical ruler to measure objects on screen

ScreenRuler was created by Ian McIntosh  <ian@openanswers.org>  and  this  manual  page  was  written  by

ScreenRuler  is  a simple graphical ruler which allows you to measure horizontal or vertically any object
       on screen using different metric systems (pixels, centimetres, inches, picas, points or as a percentage).

       It was created for GNOME desktops and can be controled either using  the  mouse  or,  if  you  need  more
       precision, with the keyboard. If you need it, it also has an option to keep on top of other windows.

ScreenRuler has been released under the GNU General Public License, version 2 or later.

       As  already  said,  ScreenRuler is a graphical application, and as such it takes no command line options.
       All configuration must be done using its GTK interface.
