User reviews

Tudo que eu estava buscando, simples e funcional. Só passar o mouse e ela já diz o tamanho do elemento e mostra linhas para você comparar o alinhamento.

This is amazing.

it's pretty good, but there should be a way to move the buttons out of the way. I can't measure something in the header cause the ruler size button is hovering over it.
