- MB-Ruler for Chrome (Chrome extension) - a triangular ruler to measure distance and angles, a horizontal and vertical ruler with help lines, a screen grid that divides the web site in equal rectangles. Note: it tends to get in the way as the overlay show in ALL APP. I like to disable it until it’s needed.
- ColorPick Eye Droper (Chrome extension) - select a color on a website or photo; copy the code and use to create a custom color.
- Transparent Protractor as an overlay, copy and paste into any document, add it to your Web Clipboard (Note: items in the web clipboard are deleted if not used for 30 days.)
Drawing templates
- Click on the link above or the image below to access a read only view of a Google folder packed full of Google Drawing template. Note - the view below is the "Grid" view - which displays a preview of each file. Credit goes to my colleagues who have graciously shared these resources, allowing me to share the resources with you. Thank you!
With the folder open, click on a file to open a view-only version of the file. Under the File menu, "Make a copy..." Now you have a shareable and editable copy. Rename as desired. Note: to make a copy of an entire folder, I recommend an Google Add-on called "Folder Copy" from EZ34. This $2 program is well worth the cost in time saving. Folder Copy will copy any folder where you have read rights - and create a new folder with the same resources - but now you are the owner.
