Crosshairs is a screen ruler app for quickly getting the dimensions of anything on your screen. You can drag a transparent overlay overtop of any app and adjust the box as much as you need. No more taking a screenshot just to get the size of something.

Features
* Activate/deactivate the app with global hotkey, which is customizable
* Switch between overlay colors
* Dynamically adjust the opacity of the overlay
* Switch between normal and inverted overlay mode
* Copy dimensions directly to your clipboard
* Can customize the format of the dimensions to suit your needs
* Take a screenshot of the area beneath the overlay
* Make pixel perfect adjustments with the keyboard


Keyboard Shortcuts:

Crosshairs is a menu bar app and has a very minimal interface. Most of the app's features are controlled via keyboard shortcuts. Here's a complete list:

* Esc or Command-H = Deactivate app
* Command-Shift-2 = Global hotkey to activate the app
* Arrow keys = Move the overlay by 1 pixel
* Shift + arrow keys = Move the overlay by 10 pixels
* i = Toggle between normal and inverted overlay mode
* Tab = Toggle between the primary/alternate overlay color
* Command + up/down arrow = Increase or decrease the opacity
* Command-C = Copy current dimensions to clipboard
* Delete = Clear the current overlay
* Command-, = Open preferences
* Space = Take screenshot

**Note: when Crosshairs is active, it intercepts all mouse clicks so you can draw an overlay on top of existing apps. Some users have reported this as locking up the system since they can't interact with other apps. When Crosshairs is active, the menu bar icon is blue, to quickly deactivate it, just hit the Escape key.**
