       Mac OS

myPoint Grid combines three tools in one: Crosshairs, Grille and Coordinates.
All tools are customizable: line width, aperture size, color and opacity, offset from mouse position, hotkeys.

myPoint supports multiple users, screens and desktops. It is built on Apple's security paradigm - sandboxing - this way it is reducing the threat of rogue code and malicious software.

Note: When myPoint is running, no icon is shown in the Dock. All the control is through a menu in Menu bar extras.

What's new

• In Coordinates module:
A new Flying Panel with mouse coordinates:
- The panel can follow the mouse pointer or it can stand aside at user defined position.
- The panel is shown above all applications.
- The panel's behavior and appearance are customizable.
Tip for laptop users - shrink the flying panel and hide myPoint from menu bar to free more screen space.
Tip for large screen users and presenters - expand the flying panel to make it visible from long distance.

• In Grille module:
Grille from Bands.
Now the right Grille can be constructed by pressing two hotkeys: Pin the grille and Apply bands.
This feature is very useful for tasks like Rule of Thirds.
The number of bands can be set in preferences panel.
