THE MEASUREMENT TOOLKIT
Look past
the diagonal.
Three practical tools for understanding screen shapes, pixel counts and your desk-width budget. Every input is editable. Every formula is explained.
01 /
Know the dimensions.
Calculate active width, height, area and pixel density from diagonal, aspect ratio and resolution.
Screen dimensions & PPI02 /
See what changes.
Compare two active rectangles at one scale, with signed changes in width, height, area and density.
Screen size comparison03 /
Make room for the setup.
Plan a straight row of one, two or three screens with real outer widths, gaps and side reserves.

Active screen ≠ complete monitor.
The diagonal describes the active picture. For a real desk plan, collect the outer housing and support dimensions separately.
