Find the exact coordinates of any pixel.

What it measures

• The x, y position of any pixel on the screen
• Offsets (ΔX, ΔY) from an origin you set
• Alignment between elements across the whole display
• Positions on every display, each measured from its own top-left corner

How to read screen coordinates with the crosshair

1. Choose the crosshair

   Press ⌃⌥M, then 6. Guide lines follow your pointer across the whole screen.

2. Point at the pixel

   Move the pointer; arrow keys move it one pixel at a time. The readout shows x, y in pixels.

3. Set an origin for offsets

   Click, or press A, to set an origin. Now ΔX and ΔY show the distance from it. Click near the origin again to clear it.
