My subject line says it all. Like, right now I can only measure horizontal and/or vertical. It would be cool if I could either have a diagonal mode, or even better, a mode with a hotkey that lets you rotate it with for example the mouse, as much as you want. There are times when you need to measure things that are not perpendicular! :)C.

To this end we have to have a ruler program which itself is validated. Could you please tell us if you have ever validated the program and/or what we need to do to have documentation of its calibration? A validation certificate stating that you have followed an SDLC, based on your quality system rules would be great....AnonymousWed, 19 Jan 2022 09:21:11 -0000https://sourceforge.net/p/screenruler/discussion/general/thread/5e3aaea1ca/?limit=25#20fahttps://sourceforge.net/p/screenruler/discussion/general/thread/fa07697e62/?limit=25#cbf9How do you uninstall this program?
