myPoint

Align your point!

myPoint Grid combines three tools in one: Crosshair, Grille and Coordinates.
All tools are customizable: gauge thickness, aperture size, color and opacity, offset from mouse, hotkeys.
myPoint will show its information above all other windows and applications, even when another application is active or on full screen.
Crosshair displays two thin lines across the mouse position.
  • Visible on all monitors or only on the screen with the mouse pointer.
  • Customizable performance, gauge, color, transparency, offset from mouse.
