Likewise, the positioning and sizing of the ruler is possible by cursor keys. The built-in magnifier enables an accurate positioning of the ruler and can be activated at each of the four corners of the ruler.

Furthermore, Screen Ruler 2D provides automatically important technical information about the underlying window such as window name, window class, window handle, process ID and relating task.
