Version 3.0 of Iconico.com's popular design software offers great new features to accurately and effectively measure anything on a computer screen. Working with all existing applications engineers, print designers and web developers will find this software invaluable.

The Screen Calipers are a unique application that allows designers to measure anything on a computer screen quickly and accurately. The application resembles a real-life Vernier Calipers, making the application so intuitive to use that no instructions are required.

The Screen Calipers can be used with any program where fast and accurate measurements are required. Originally created for graphics and web professionals for html layout, the Screen Calipers are currently being used by thousands of people for hundreds of uses. These include engineers with CAD drawings, Architects with blueprints, Designers with illustrations, even Orthodontists who use the Screen Calipers to measure teeth on X-Rays.

The latest version of the Screen Calipers marks a gold standard of the product; every inch of the application has been polished to perfection. The Screen Calipers are free to use for an unlimited time; for $19.50 you may unlock the many advanced features.

Rotation:
360 degrees rotation has been added to the Calipers making them the most useful on-screen measurement application ever made.

Custom units:
Screen Calipers now measures inches, centimeters, points, picas and twips. There are also five custom fields that users can configure to measure in their own units.

Improved keyboard controls:
If you're familiar with Adobe Photoshop's keyboard controls then using Version 3 will be a snap. By pressing Ctrl, Shift and Alt while dragging the Calipers you can limit the Calipers to extend, rotate or snap to 90 degrees.

Improved skins:
Version 3 comes with additional skins, "Tall" and "Small" help you measure large objects and in those hard to reach areas.

BTW, just read the "Review Summary" above, Pros & Cons. Let me tell you something... The "Cons" written in above, "A little difficult to handle..." I believe was put in there because they needed to add SOmEthInG in the Cons column. Okay, if you are someone who has difficulty using a wooden ruler or perhaps have mastered that and moved on to the flexible "tape" measure and find that jump in tools a little difficult, then yeah, Screen Calipers is a little tough to figure out in the beginning.

I've used Screen Calipers for many years. It's an awesome tool for coding, especially when you're looking for specific, down to the pixel, of images on the screen or page width or any of countless other sizing needs. I use it all the time. It's a very small program and uses very little memory. Great tool!
