If you have ever used the Zoomin sample provided by Microsoft, you are aware of how difficult it is to count the pixels. To this end I developed a simple extension that adds a grid and the possibility to set the application on top-most position.

How about a RGB value

The X Windows tool (xmag) which is like zoomin much
worse in functionality has one thing zoomin doesnt.
In xmag, when it shows you (the static) view, if you click
anywhere in the view, it shows you the RGB value of
the pixel you are clicking on.
I would love to see that in Zoomin. I would also love to see
xmag support Zoomins dynamic monitoring...but i guess
thats for another day.

How about a right-mouse-button menu to mark the origin, then automatically show x,y distance as the mouse is moved.

If you use Ruler.exe together with ZoomIn.exe you will find it very easy to count pixel..
The RULER example come with the SDK I think..
Anyway I like your idea of the grid. How about a ToolTip along side the
cursor giving current grid location ref. top left corner ?
