Hello again,  
I spoke to the people who will be the end users of my Slicer module and they really do want something more precise than the built-in ruler tool I referred to in the first post in this thread.  
If you have any links to share that could help me figure out the syntax for adding a ruler tool to my module (using qSlicerSimpleMarkupsWidget?) that would be greatly appreciated.
