How do I paste a screenshot into the pixel ruler?

Take a screenshot using your OS shortcut (Print Screen on Windows, Cmd+Shift+4 on Mac), then press Ctrl+V (Cmd+V on Mac) while on the tool page. You can also drag and drop image files directly onto the canvas.

Can I measure angles between lines?

Yes! Switch to Angle mode and click three points on your image. The tool calculates and displays the angle at the middle point in degrees.

Does the ruler support unit conversion?

Yes. You can set your screen DPI and convert measurements between pixels, inches, centimeters, and millimeters. The default is 96 DPI, which is standard for most displays.

Can I save my measurements?

Yes. You can export the annotated screenshot as a PNG file with all measurement overlays, or export your measurement history as a CSV file for further analysis.

Is there a zoom feature for precise measurement?

Yes. Use the zoom controls or mouse wheel to zoom in up to 800% for pixel-perfect precision. A magnifier loupe also follows your cursor showing a magnified view of the area around it.
