BILL CLINTON  This program does not work correctly with vertically-oriented monitors of unequal size. (I can't test with monitors of equal size.) This is a common configuration for laptop users. Many programs have problems with this configuration, including Apple's window manager, so Rulers is not unique in this regard.  (Version 1.0.168)

THEBLADES  I think this app is very usefull and I will use it often.

There is one request that I have:

could there be added a way to change the zero point?

Like in most page layout programs you can go to the upper left corner of the ruler section click & hold then drag your zero over to where you need to start measuring from.

Thanks for such a great lil app and to make it free is exceptional!  (Version 1.0.132)

COMPUTERNAUT  This is the best screen ruler I've ever seen. Just like its product name, Rulers is free of any uncertainties as for what it can do, or can not do. No unnecessary bloat here.

Compared to similar tools that I've tried, I find that Rulers is the only app worthy of being called a real pixel scalpel.

Can't say for how long I've been waiting for exactly this app, but it's been long enough to say: Finally, you did it!

On a side note. I have one humble request for a freature, that I'd like to see:

- Undo functionality. As in, if you move a ruler and you moved it wrong, hitting Command-Z would make it even easier to set it back to where it was before.

This is easily worth 5 stars from me.  (Version 1.0.132)
