Dear Roger, Damia and all,
Instead of fiddling with the display settings of the monitor, I use the
Pen Tool of my image processing program, Paint Shop Pro, to measure wall
declination. I guess other programs have a similar tool.
When drawing a straight line over a sharp picture element

I import the Google Earth photo into Delta Cad, then I draw a red line over
the wall or roofline. Then using edit tab for the line, Deta Cad tells me
the exact angle of the line.
