Does Affinity Offer an On-screen Ruler?


Recommended Posts

In other words, does it have a ruler than can be used outside the app to measure pixel distances on my computer screen

It's an important issue for me and I was unable to get an answer looking at the App documentation.

If the answer is no, would love to hear suggestions. I have looked at xScope, which appears to be good but expensive. If Affinity has something similar, buying Affinity would be a no-brainer.

Thanks.

Hi Redge,

 

Welcome to the forums

 

We don't offer an on screen ruler I'm afraid however this has been requested in the past and may be added in a future update :)

 

Thanks

Yeah, xScope, at what, $50 is expensive. I have used PixelStick from time to time when the need arises and it does the job for me.

At $7 it is much more reasonable although not as full featured as xScope. It is available on the Mac App store as well.

 

Here is a brief video showing the use of PixelStick:
