Specs – Custom Measures & Marks (Photoshop 2021) R9BXP4S

>>>>>> This Plugin ONLY workes with Photoshop CC 2021 or newer <<<<<<

Specs makes it easy to generate measurements (sizes, distances), guidelines and color samples. Everything is customizable in its appearance and most of the settings update in real time. You can measure in different Units like pixel, inch, millimeter and centimeter or display colors as hex code, RGB, CYMK or HSB. Since the fontsize and all other visual styles are adjustable, you can even use Specs for large print templates, not only designs that are for web-use.

Main Functions:

• Measure Size: Add measurements for selected layers to indicate height and width
• Measure Distance: Add measurements for the distances between two selected layers (or document edge)
• Measure Custom: Auto-selects the ruler tool and let’s you draw a measurement
• Guides from Layer: Renders guidelines along the edges of a layer
• Draw Guideline: Place a guide and it gets drawn as a line
• Sample Color: Take a color sample in various color modes
• Layer/Document Info: List various properties (auto detects if it’s a shape, text or normal layer and shows relevant info)
