Publisher's description
From Kummailil :This program is a semi-transparent on-screen ruler with keyboard shortcuts to help you lay out GUIs and Web pages or measure anything on your screen. Right-click to learn the options and shortcuts. The ruler saves its settings upon exit, so it always looks the way you configured it last. The program comes with a built in uninstaller. It is safe for work, since it does not modify your registry.

Version: On-screen Ruler 1.0.1
"Simple App Does the Job Perfectly"
Pros: Small install and simple to use. Can nudge ruler around with arrow keys. Horizontal or Vertical orientation. Works with Vista.
