Best Tool for Accurate On-Screen Measurements? - fetekis - 07-25-2025

Hi everyone, 

I'm looking for a reliable way to measure elements directly on my screen. I often need to check UI spacing and dimensions when designing interfaces. I've tried a few browser extensions and apps, but they’re either inaccurate or clunky. 

Can anyone recommend a good screen ruler in pixels that works smoothly on Windows or macOS? Preferably something lightweight, precise, and easy to toggle on/off. Bonus if it has customizable transparency or guides. 

What do you use in your workflow? Any suggestions or links would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!
