PixelStick overview
PixelStick is a tool for measuring distances, angles, and colors on the screen. PhotoShop has distance, angle and color tools but they only work in PhotoShop. PixelStick works in any app and anywhere on screen anytime and costs a hundred times less.
- Its easy, simple and fast. PixelStick is a measuring tool you can pinch and stretch to measure anything on your screen. Use the eyedropper to copy colors in 4 formats (CSS, RGB, RGB hex, HTML) to the clipboard for use in any app.
- Its like an onscreen virtual ruler that you can use vertically, horizontally, and at any angle to measure distances, angles, and much more just by dragging.
- Supports the scaling in Google Maps, Yahoo Maps, and Photoshop. Also has Customized (user settable) scaling options.
Most of what PixelStick does is obvious. Drag the endpoints to change the measurement. Click the locks to constrain the movement. Launch it, play around, no more limitations to just one app in measuring distance, angle, and color.
What’s new in version 2.16.2
Version 2.16.2:
- Changed the event tap code
- Macos catalina 10.15 now requires user permission for "screen recording" to allow apps like pixelstick to see the contents of the screen. now fixed
- When building pixelstick with xcode versions 10 and above: the window is no longer transparent, so you only see pixelstick on a grey background covering the whole screen. this is now fixed.
Note: if you have any issue make sure you uncheck and check the permissions for pixelstick in privacy:accessibility, privacy:input monitoring and privacy:screenrecording.

An incredibly useful app for working developing digital models from screenshots and on-screen maps. Would be a clean 5 stars if there would not be a bug that multiplies custom values by 100 whatever I do (which is an improvement, formerly the bug multiplied the value by 500 each time I used it). But apart from that it is really, really well-desingned and well-behaved, and, as I said, simply extremely useful in many circumstances.

I've been using Pixelstick for years. When I have to line up staves in a music book precisely horizontally or vertically this is my goto app! There are more complex tools for measuring distance, but for lining things up on a screen, it doesn't get much better or simpler. Good support also!

Saves hours over the course of a web project. I don't know what I'd do without it!
