How are you guys mapping pixels for button placement?
Photoshops pixel ruler and measuring tool, but there has to be a better way.
Hope this helps. In Photoshop i use ruler line to set exact placement, then use Rect. Marquee Tool to drag to the ruler line. Now Control+C to copy the rect.
Then File>New - now just look at the new size and use the Height or Width to determine x or y value. Its not easy but works very well
Repeat for the other value...

yee... that's a weird method.
I use photoshop's ruler tool, and for the most part go diagonally so i can get both x and y start points along w/the dimensions in 1 drag
please share. I do it the best way i know how to. Its not easy but gets the job done

I guess... its the best method of all time...
I use ImageReady with slicing. You don't actually have to cut anything but is good for mapping the pixels and you can save as and save a copy of the image with the slices so you can come back to it.
I tend to print a black and white copy of the image and then using imageready's slices i write down the measurements, kind of like an architects drawing.
We are, will have and forever will be...
But not tommorrow!
