If you have ever done site mockups in Photoshop and needed to mark these with pixel measurements you know what an incredibly tedious task this can be.
I went looking for a script that would help you automatize this process. Surprised to not find one, I decided to write one myself.
- Download the latest version, unzip and place the Pixel Measure.jsx file in your Photoshop scripts directory (located in
<your photoshop program directory>/Presets/Scripts
). - Restart Photoshop.
- The Pixel Measure script should now be visible in the File > Scripts menu. For ease of use you might want to create a keyboard shortcut to the script. This can be done through the Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts menu.
- Make a selection in a document and run the script.
- To create a horizontal measurement - select an area that has a greater width than height, and vice versa.
- The color of the measurement is determined by your current foreground color.
- The line thickness of the measurement is determined by your current pencil settings.
