Keep it on portable devices

This is a portable program which makes it an ideal candidate for being saved on USB flash drives. You can gain access to the tool’s features by simply running the executable file (there’s no installation included in the process).A quick deletion task is sufficient for getting rid of the utility because it does not store entries in your Windows registry and leave other settings files behind. All configuration items are saved on the storage device. You may open the utility without administrative privileges and run it directly from the USB flash drive.

Minimalist looks

The ruler is semitransparent and is placed on top of other programs by default.Working with this ruler proves to be nothing more than a piece of cake. You just need to place the ruler next to the object that you want to measure and set the ruler’s tick to the desired position.Tests have pointed out that StormRuler carries out a task quickly and without errors. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not affected.

Final remarks

To sum things up, StormRuler comes bundled with basic features for helping you measure distances on the fly. The simple suite of features makes it suitable especially for less experienced users.
