Measure the distances between elements

Make sure the positioning of all objects in your design project is set up correctly down to a millimeter using Approval Studio’s on-screen ruler.

Measurements are important

In design review process, everything must be calculated accurately before the mockup goes to production. The tiniest inaccuracies can ruin the project, especially if the design is intended for print.

Solution

Besides all annotations and comparison modes, a proficient design proofing software must provide means to avoid it and make sure all the measurements are applied correctly. Approval Studio does it with the help of its ruler feature.
