this is a very easy to use and simple tool, with a lot more than i expected; biggest problem is it doesn't show on 2nd attached display; it's possible to drag it completely off the main display and not get it back; also, several features are undocumented and slightly less than obvious (such as the "asterisk" lock for 90/45 degree angles)
here are some suggested features:
1) ability to enter a distance, location or angle on the palette
2) option to allow start & end points at fractional pixel locations (this would aid in using fixed angles)
3) modifier key to allow rotating and/or lengthening the line segment around its center
4) ability to display a set of evenly spaced rules that continue the interval defined by start & end points (right now we have two rules, plus tangents on outer circles; idea would be to fill the screen)
5) option to add a second end point, still stemming from same start point, enabling a) ability to measure angles without either side being vertical or horizontal; b) ability to create a grid, not necessarily rectilinear, using feature (4)
5) option to enter a scaling factor on the palette; e.g. to measure pixels when working in Photoshoo
i think all this could be done without diminishing the simplicity of the tool

- Re: nicely done, but doesn't show on 2nd display
ALSO...Here is an idea for you developers.
PixelStick is an Interesting software app, but I need something more specialized.
I would pay $50 for MAC ppc software app that will Grade & Measure Postage Stamp Perforation Centering.
EzGrader will only work on a PC and they will not plan to port it to a MAC.
Here is a link. http://www.ezstamp.com/ezgrader/mainscrn.html
Anyone interested?
