Screen Measurement SDK & API
Overview
The Iconico Screen Measurement SDK provides a robust COM (Component Object Model) interface that allows any Windows application to control and retrieve data from our measurement tools. It's the same engine that powers our standalone apps, now available for your specialized workflows.
API Reference
The SDK exposes the following primary methods and properties through the Iconico.Caliper object:
Open(): Launches the measurement tool.Close(): Closes the tool.GetMeasurement(): Returns the current measurement value.SetUnits(unitID): Changes the active measurement unit.SetPosition(x, y): Moves the tool to specific screen coordinates.SetRotation(degrees): Rotates the tool (0-360°).
Integration Examples
C# / .NET
// Add reference to IconicoCaliperLib
var caliper = new IconicoCaliper.Application();
caliper.Open();
double val = caliper.GetMeasurement();
Console.WriteLine($"Current Measurement: {val}");Python
import win32com.client
caliper = win32com.client.Dispatch("Iconico.Caliper")
caliper.Open()
print(f"Measurement: {caliper.GetMeasurement()}")C++
