I have a little tool called Screen Measure that pops up a real slick ruler on the screen. I can resize my windows as needed, and it allows for magnification of the area on the screen right next to the ruler, so you can measure to the pixel with ease. It converts from horizontal to vertical measuring in one click. I use it all the time.
You can get it off the website of a former co-worker of mine for free at http://www.alexsantantonio.com/work/devtools.asp thanks -r _____________________________________ Rob Barthle Contractor - Sr. Software Developer [EMAIL PROTECTED] 202-245-6484 -----Original Message----- From: Earl, George [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 22, 2006 4:13 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: SOT: Developing for 800 x 600 on monitor at higher resolution We just got new LCD monitors that have a native resolution of 1280 x 1024 but we develop for 800 x 600 (inTRAnet standard). Like lots of LCDs, these look like crap at anything other than their native resolution. If you are in the same boat, how do you develop for a non-native resolution like 800 x 600 and make sure that everything fits and looks right? Do you pop up an 800 x 600 browser window to view the pages? Use a second monitor set to 800 x 600? Use a utility? Thanks!
